Have spent too much time around truck drivers to agree with you here.😉
Will definitely say that anyone who want to become a LEO today,
already failed the mental competency test.
I like hanging out with truck drivers, especially owner ops. Yes, a percentage are there, barely capable of the job, but you find the most interesting characters among drivers. Lots of second career type individuals, quite a few stepped out of rat-race middle and upper management careers. Choose to drive truck, make the same kind of money, don't have to deal with corporate BS. My relief driver is a contractor (remodels bathrooms) and a mobile mechanic for farm equipment -- he's a sharp guy, very competent, very knowledgeable, but doesn't want to get stuck doing one thing for the rest of his life. And he ain't cheap..
I suppose the same goes for LEO's, but the mouth breathers there are far more dangerous.
