Back It UP | 204: Giant Load Chaos

Hammer Lane Legends

In this week's episode, Brian and Brian are joined by Kyle. Kyle shares his transition from a firefighter and welder to becoming a third-generation truck driver, driven by a family tradition of trucking. He recounts several extraordinary experiences on the road, including navigating through a blizzard with the assumption that, as a Canadian, he could handle the snow better than most, outmaneuvering a tornado in Texas, and the unique challenges of hauling oversized loads across various states. Kyle's stories highlight the unpredictable and often dangerous aspects of truck driving, especially when dealing with extreme weather, oversized loads, and the intricacies of navigating through different state regulations and encounters with law enforcement and other road users. His tales reflect the camaraderie, skills, and resilience required in the trucking industry, as well as a deep sense of pride and tradition in his work.
