Truck driving is challenging task and is not meant for everyone. There is no doubt that the home time is much more precious for any truck driver and his family and it feels really wistful when they have to go away from their families for months. They are usually assigned delivery routes where they make deliveries to the destination and they are driving constantly under pressure to deliver the cargo on time.
- Health issues – Health issues are one of the major problems that are being faced by the truck drivers. They cannot have hygienic food while on the road, as it really crumbles some for them to look for the nearby restaurants. As a result of non-availability of food while on road, they end up going for junk foods that provide highly processed food, thus affecting their health.
- Parking area is not available – Major issue faced by truckers nowadays is lack of available parking areas they have to go off their route in search of parking. More truckers have faced this situation while parking their truck in unsafe places.
- Traveling without route planning- Truck drivers are traveling across the country without any planning under the constant pressure of delivering the cargo on time. The truck drivers are being robbed on the highways thus they are not safe. They have to pass the low clearance bridges and roads that can lead to life threatening accidents. It is just because they are traveling without route planning for their trip.
- No place for rest– The truck-driving job is to move at any time of the day/night. It becomes really very challenging for a driver to find a place to sleep at night and for rest at some time.
A driver is supposed to work in all the circumstances, even if it is severe weather condition, he just cannot say no to his work. However, a companion or a sidekick is something that somehow makes the job easier for the driver. To help a trucker overcome the hassles during the journey, now there’s a mobile app – Truckbubba.
