Truck driver

'A truck driver is a paid professional who drives an eighteen-wheeler for a living. In the United States, truck drivers usually requires a CDL license and must make periodic stops at weigh stations along their route to verify that the weight of their cargo is not greater or less than it was the previous weigh station. This is done to discourage criminal activity such as smuggling or human trafficking.
