Truckers share stunning routes and unique moments from the road

This week, truckers across the country shared highlights from the road, showing just how varied and interesting the job can be.

On the CDLLife App: Drivers posted about hauling through some wild and beautiful places.

  • One trucker talked about delivering loads inside the caves of Lenexa, Kansas. Not something you see every day.
  • Out on I-70 in Colorado, another driver caught some amazing views — snow was falling, making the highway even more impressive.
  • The Cumberland Gap in the early morning was quiet for one driver, who rolled down the window to listen to the cicadas as the sun came up.
  • Yet another driver grabbed a shot of the Salt Lake City mountains, always a favorite for folks headed west.

Why it matters: Truckers see more of America than just about anyone. These stories highlight not just the cool places they stop, but the variety of experiences out there — underground docks, snowy highways, early morning calm, and mountain scenery.

The week also included breaking news and safety reminders, with topics like road closures, equipment check operations in Arizona, and truck stop updates. As always, truckers keep goods — and stories — moving across every corner of the country.
