There is nothing more
distracted than a tired
old truck driver lost.

    Oh… shoosh…. a few of us have been in such predicaments. It’s no fun believe me. Don’t make fun of us old truckers 🙂

      Not making fun at all. I just get it. It can be a great job. It can also be hell.

        Oh, I know… I was kidding.. I think truckers are thick skinned enough to take it on the chin, they do that instinctively anyway. 🙂 I enjoyed the haiku… and, can understand the other commenters feelings. Part of life 🙂
