Now it's in cheap brown wrapping. Don't get me started about leaf lettuce.

I know we live in flyover country, and trucking across our state brings in a lot of income.

That being said, I have felt that trucking has been out of control for a long time in the state of Nebraska. Truckers do what they want, when they want, and they don't care about the consequences until they kill somebody.

To have two separate semis strike another semi within 24 hours on I-80 in Nebraska should be a wake up call. That's such a specific circumstance, it makes you wonder if enough is really being done.

I drive a commercial vehicle regularly on i-80, mostly in the Lincoln area, and I can't tell you how many times I get passed on the left by a semi doing well over 80 mph. Sometimes I drive up to Omaha and it's even worse.

I have a lot of respect for trucking, and I understand it makes our economy move.

That being said, the I-80 corridor between east of Omaha and west of Lincoln is an absolute nightmare. Some truckers move as if it is a speedway, and they're driving a 40 ton sports car.

Something needs to be done

The accidental thumbs up is just dawning on me now. I might be socially awkward.
