Trucking in the 80's was a rough and tumble boys only industry that wasn't accustomed to women drivers. If a woman drove professionally, she was part of a team, usually with her husband or boyfriend. Trucking companies were leery of hiring women. We were often stereotyped and seen as something far less than drivers. This is my story of being a solo female driver, my struggles and making it through. I love this industry and would do it again in a heartbeat.
