Have you ever wondered about the hidden dangers truck drivers face on the road? This episode tackles the tragic and perplexing death of David Schultz, a trucker whose life was cut short by hyperthermia after ingesting methamphetamine. Uncover the haunting timeline from his disappearance in November 2023 to the grim discovery of his body months later. We emphasize the critical importance of truckers watching out for one another and reflect on the profound loss felt by Schultz's family and the entire trucking community.
