Virginia Myers, assistant manager of the Buckhorn Family Restaurant and someone who has considered the TA “home” for about 10 years, relishes talking about all of the changes. Part of the overhaul of the entire TA…]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Butch Estrada could fix a truck in his sleep, and he just about proved that during SuperTech 2009 in Raleigh, N.C. The national competition tests the skills of the top truck mechanics in the country. The Lake Station, Ind. TA technician, got held up getting to his flight out of Chicago. So he rented a car and drove for 14 hours, arriving at 5:30 a.m., little time to rest before the  7 a.m. start time for the event.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No, that&#8217;s no college prank. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has begun a new project specifically intended to confuse drivers. Zig-zagging white lines are being painted on selected roadways. These markings are part of an experiment to cause motorists to slow down or brake instinctively before coming to high pedestrian and bicycle areas. The experiment is taking place in Virginia&#8217;s Loudoun County at several popular hiking and biking trails that cross roads with heavy&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most truck farmers harvest their produce in the field, then load it up in their vehicle to transport to market. Curt Ellis and Ian Cheney approached the whole idea a little differently. These 29-year-old Yale grads went straight to the truck, creating a farm in the bed of a gray 1986 Dodge Ram pickup parked on Van Brunt Street in Brooklyn&#8217;s Red Hook neighborhood. The garden roams New York City, allowing folks to harvest sacks of edible greenery at their stoops for an annual fee of $&#8230;]]></description>

Randy Thomas of the Illinois Trucking Association stands on the flatbed serving as a makeshift stage and welcomes the contestants in the state&#8217;s Professional Truck Driving Championships. &#8220;You are the best of the best,&#8221; he says. But for the more than 100 drivers about to compete, today isn&#8217;t just about being the best in the state. The top winner in each of nine categories goes on &#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Could roads be fatality-free within a generation? Peter Evans, Toyota&#8217;s corporate manager of product planning predicted that evolving technology could improve road safety that much. Soon cars will keep to the speed limit, stay a safe distance from other traffic, not stray out of their lane and get warnings that help them avoid hitting pedestrians. Trucking has a similar array of safety features available now. Motorists could use the help. A driver traveling one block in a busy downt&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m about to celebrate 10 years&#160; as a truck driver. It&#8217;s pretty simple how I got into the business. I needed a job, and I thought this was something that I could do. So I called a truck driving school, they said come on in and that&#8217;s what I did. I have been driving since &#8212; I have no complaints. When I came into the industry, I did what I&#8217;m sure a lot of people do. I got every CD of trucking songs I co&#8230;]]></description>

New York has unseated Miami as the least courteous city, as indicated by the fourth annual In the Driver&#8217;s Seat Road Rage Survey. The survey found the most courteous city &#8212; the one with the least road rage &#8212; to be Portland, Ore., which moved up from the number two spot in last year&#8217;s survey. Pittsburgh, Pa., was ranked number one in the 2008 study. Commissioned by a &#8230;]]></description>
