Be Thankful for Truck Drivers

Bruce talks about the importance of truck drivers in the logistics chain and why we need to be thankful for the work that they do. Many people don’t understand how trucks play a part in the stocking store shelves with their favourite items. With the Canadian Thanksgiving on the horizon this is a good time to think about how the food got onto the plate in front of you. The Lead Pedal Podcast is always promoting the importance of the trucking industry to the public. Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends.

About the Show

The Lead Pedal Podcast offers a positive voice for truck drivers in the transportation industry with career and business information. The Lead Pedal Podcast is a show for those in the trucking industry wanting to improve their trucking careers or businesses. What does The Lead Pedal Podcast mean? The Lead (pronounced “Led”) stands for acceleration or fast-track of your career. It is a play on words and we certainly are not here promoting speeding in the industry. We are hoping this information will help you become a professional driver faster than if you didn’t know about many of these topics.

The interviews, information, features and other items that are meant to be helpful for drivers and those in the trucking industry. We are not here to wine and complain about the industry but aim to offer positive ways to create a successful trucking career. Professional truck drivers work for good carriers, good carriers treat drivers better, pay better, and therefore have good careers.
