A Truck Cut Us Off on I-80… This Could’ve Gone Very Bad
Another day trucking on I-80 turned into a seriously close call when a truck cut back into our lane way too early and actually forced us onto the shoulder. Thankfully, there was room to move over, because this situation could have ended very differently. In this vlog, we continue our ride east through “Crete Country” as we head toward Crete Carrier Corporation headquarters in Lincoln, Nebraska. Along the way, we chat about life on the road, see tons of Crete and Shaffer trucks, deal with a tense highway moment, stop at Love’s for our 30-minute reset, and then continue rolling east on I-80. As you see...life on the road can change in seconds. So please, stay alert out there drivers. 👇 Tell us about your close call in the comments! 👉 If you decide to apply with Crete, we’d really appreciate it if you use our referral code: SLOKEV If you enjoy real trucking life videos, OTR trucking content, trucking stories, CDL life, road trip conversations, and honest day-in-the-life trucking videos, make sure to subscribe and ride along with us. 🔔Subscribe for real-world trucking and life on the road. / @thejoyoftrucking 👉We have MERCH!! ✅Check out the store: https://joyoftruckingstore.com 🚚If you want to DRIVE for CRETE CARRIER CORPORATION, call Recruiting at 1-800-998-2221.
