- Chin Tucks
- Shoulder Squeezes
- Thoracic Extension
- Seated Trunk Rotation
- Seated Piriformis Stretch
Watch the video for details about each of these stretches.

🚛 Operation Safe Driver Week is July 12–18
This year's campaign focuses on reckless, careless, and dangerous driving, reminding everyone—commercial drivers and passenger vehicle drivers alike—that safe decisions save lives. During the week, law enforcement across North America will increase traffic enforcement and driver education efforts.
Keep these safety reminders in mind:
⚠️ Slow down and leave plenty of following distance.
📵 Stay focused—put distractions away.
🤝 Be patient and share the road with everyone.
At Southland Transportation, safety isn't just a campaign for one week—it's part of every trip, every load, and every mile. Thank you to ALL of our professional drivers who help make our highways safer every day.

Truck drivers are built different. If you’ve spent time driving OTR, then you know a few things that can’t be taught.
🛑 The strategic art of finding a parking spot at a truck stop at 11pm
☕ The difference between a "good" rest stop and a "character-building" rest stop
📻 An entire 8-hour playlist might only have 12 songs
🌅 A sunrise through a windshield hits different after 400+ miles
If you know, you know. Tag a driver who gets it. 👇

💧🚛 Are you staying hydrated on the road? 🥤
Tragically, many of our favorite drinks ☕⚡🥤— coffee, energy drinks, and sodas — can contribute to dehydration if that's all you're drinking throughout the day.
One of the easiest healthy habits for truck drivers is carrying a large reusable water bottle and refilling it often. 💙 Not only will your kidneys thank you, but your wallet will too! 💵
Staying hydrated can help prevent:
😴 Fatigue
🤕 Headaches
🧠 Loss of focus
⏱️ Slower reaction times
All of which are BAD NEWS for professional drivers. 🚛⚠️ Stay safe out there and let's encourage each other to stay hydrated!
