In this first of a new series, we talk with current, professional truck drivers who are active in trucking social media and industry issues. Sandy Long began her driving career in 1972 and is author of Street Smarts and Arriving Alive in which she shares her expertise to help others in the area of maintaining personal safety while living life on the road.  She is highly active in issues where she shares her voice through her trucking blog, Just a Lady Driver. As a published poet and freelance writer for six International websites and the Canadian Trucking Magazine, we will discuss major issues within the industry such as EOBR's, sleep apnea and truck driver fatigue, all from the view of a lady trucker with 40 years of driving experience.
