Ice Road Truckers Means Extreme Trucking

extreme trucking
The History Channel aired a show called Ice Road Truckers. People from the show include Alex, Hugh, Rick, and Drew. Where are they now? They're back, but instead of frozen lakes, they're on to frozen oceans. These truckers risk their lives to deliver their cargo by encountering polar bears, giant moose, wolverines, and grizzly bears!

The returning drivers are now employed under new management on unknown, dangerous ocean and river roads. Proving their worth will not be easy. This kind of extreme trucking comes with extreme risks. If the ice breaks and the truck submerges into the freezing water, the trucker will freeze to death in less than a minute if he doesn't escape quickly.

Through the winter months, truckers endure vicious temperatures and drive more hazardous roads than the rest of the year. This means big money. They are pressured to deliver as many loads as possible before the perilous ice streets melt. This high risk is followed by a high reward during the extreme ice road season.
