I have never looked at truckers that way.

I drive a major interstate highway everyday to and from work and there are always a lot of 18-Wheelers that are on it all the time. They don't bother me, I give them room while many people do not. Here in the US they are only allowed so many hours a day that they can be driving and the trucks go through inspections quite often.
