Freight Brokers Handbook Bumper to Bumper: The Complete Guide to Tractor-Trailer Operations
Publisher Comments
"The fact that BUMPER TO BUMPER follows through on its stated goal strikes us as the best and most important recommendation we can make to anyone working or even interested in trucking...Since it covers the essentials of everything a truck driver needs to know about the industry...it gets our top rating as an industry "classic."...Just as important as the information conveyed in it is the book's overall attitude. Addressed to drivers, the book never talks down to them or demeans the industry. Rather it treats the subject of the trucking business and big rig driving with the overall regard and respect that those activities deserve," said Don Long, Editor, Inside Trucking, about BUMPER TO BUMPER, The Complete Guide to Tractor-Trailer Operations' second edition.
