Since you are a truck driver who is rolling on the roads on a constant basis, I do believe that at least once in your career you have experienced “Trucker’s Arm”. It happens to truck drivers because the sun always gets only to their left arm. It’s almost inevitable.

Thereupon what truckers can do in order to avoid “Trucker’s Arm” is to use sun cream on a daily basis, as well they can wear long sleeves or cover half of their window (not that safe).

Be as it may, just find your perfect combination and stay protected from the sun!

Summer Trucking Heat Hack No.6: Check the Brakes

A Proper function of the brake is of a great importance for safe driving. Thereupon you should be alerted during summer because of the fact that hot temperatures can lead to brake malfunction.

So if there is brake malfunction, straight proportionally it can lead to brake fading or loss of friction when the brake components are not able to absorb any more heat. Every now and then it is recommendable for truck drivers to make a check stop, on some of the best truck stops before getting out on the road.
