For semi drivers, life on the road can be rewarding, but it can also be unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. For instance, while drivers of smaller vehicles can simply turn around and head in the opposite direction after missing a turn, drivers of big rigs can lose time, money, and a lot of their sanity searching for a place to safely turn around.
While navigating to avoid restricted roads and low bridges and facing the constant dangers of sharing the road with others, a semi driver quickly learns that missing a turn can add up to huge headaches.
Crap! I Missed My Turn is a collection of nerve-wracking stories drawn from author Roger W. Roddy’s personal experiences as well as other semi drivers. Written in the sometimes-crude and often-humorous language characteristic of long-haul truckers, these tales will put you vicariously in the driver’s seat. You’ll feel the anxiety of being behind the wheel of a big rig when things go wrong and laugh about them when they’re over.
Crap! I Missed My Turn is educational for new drivers, entertaining for seasoned ones, and a white-knuckle ride for anyone with a sense of humor and a desire to experience what it’s like to handle a semi.
