embarrassment to Trucking

TalKCDL is the Number One Trucking Podcast on planet Earth. This isn't just our claim but yours also. An embarrassment to trucking. The latest trucker to kill an innocent driver on the road while under the influence happened this past week. Court records say Peterson Black, of Taylorsville, Utah, had been under the influence of alcohol Sunday while driving west on I-80, about 4 miles southwest of Grand Island. According to reports Black lost control of his truck and it crossed into the eastbound lanes, where a small sport utility vehicle went under the trailer he was hauling.  Recently another Drunk Driver This comes on the heels of another story of a dump truck operator who killed six people while driving drunk. Jamie Don McKenzie, 42, of Heber City, pleaded guilty this past April to three counts of automobile homicide, a second-degree felony, for his involvement in an October crash. He was sentenced to serve between one and 15 years for each count, with the sentences ordered to be served one after another rather than at the same time. https://kutv.com/news/local/utah-man-charged-in-nebraska-crash-that-killed-womanhttp://talkcdl.com/s2e22-trucking-company-makes-a-mistake-watch-what-you-say-on-facebook/https://www.cdc.gov/motorvehiclesafety/impaired_driving/impaired-drv_factsheet.htmlhttps://www.transportation.gov/mission/health/Impaired-Driving-Laws-Enforcement-and-Preventionhttp://talkcdl.com/trucking-stats-and-those-governing-truckers/http://talkcdl.com/semi-trucks-in-pa-trucker-birthdays/http://talkcdl.com/trucking-a-young-boys-dream/http://talkcdl.com/trucking-the-bloodsucking-lawyers/http://www.talkcdl.com Advice for Truckers That are Alcoholics Today is the day to start your life new.
