Its well. Less work and fair pay sounds like an offer thats hard to refuse especially for Truck Drivers who are least penned weeks away from their families transporting goods on tide deadlines its an industry that employs around 60000. 00 romanians they were to lease 10 hours in traffic jams and weekends and parking lots the e. U. Wants to put an end to these working conditions but as Truck Drivers like me and are finding out its a road thats paved with many blind spots. On the road today n.
