TruckNewsTalk
Conversations with people who make a difference in the trucking industry, with Jim Park & Stan Campbell
Truck Driving Champions
You’ve heard and seen the bad news. Since covid, it has not been a good couple of years for the image of the safe, well trained truck driver. Fiery accidents and roll-overs and loss of life, almost always blamed on poorly trained drivers with sketchy licenses.
The truth is that majority of truck drivers are well-trained, safety-conscious and highly skilled. Sadly, the good news never makes the front pages.
On Saturday June 13th, you will see just how amazingly skilled truck drivers can be at a driving competition in Kitchener, Ontario. The best drivers in the country will meet to compete at the Central Ontario Regional Truck Driving Championship at the Kitchener Auditorium Complex. Think you’re great driver? You can back a b-train up on the first try or stop on a bullseye? Drivers, you are invited to come out and show your skills. Register at www.cortdc.com
Listen as Jim Park and Stan Campbell talk to a few competing drivers, and the people working hard to make this happen.

If you are a “real” country music fan but can’t get into today’s hick-hop and girlfriend-country cheese, then we invite you to check out our online radio station, with 1001 country hits from the 80s & 90s on The Road and the Radio. On the weekend, we feature Classic Country Sunday, with hits from the 60s & 70s, and sometimes, even farther back.
