Truckies.
Rain, hail and shine.
Drought, fire and floods.
Sweltering days and freezing cold nights away from home and the comfort of family and friends.
The possibility of becoming a road toll statistic.
Tirelessly navigating the long bumpy roads throughout the long days and nights with short breaks.
Heavy fines and self incrimination.
Trucks roll on.
The roads are the veins of the country and the trucks are the lifeblood supplying all the vitals.
Now we put our bodies in the face of a worldwide pandemic without a second thought because we know how important the industry is to Australia.
Lockdowns are important for the well-being of society, but truck drivers will be one of the last, if not the last to get to go into lockdown.
We will not sit at home on a stimulus package while our country and our people need us to provide our services for food, medical supplies and all other essentials.
So rest assured a truck is already on route for the things you need
In fact all essential services need more credit and recognition than they get.
For us drivers a simple thank you or a wave as we pass by you or your town will be enough to keep us motivated as we do what we do best in these tough times.
We are the brothers and sisters of the highway’s.
We are the truck drivers of Australia.
