All winter you have to cram in getting as many trips as you can, and with global warming, the ice is melting and you soon will never be able to drive over the lake because it won't be the required 30 inches thick. Being an ice road trucker isn't a very reliable job, because you have to be many months away from your family and friends, you are isolated in your truck usually by yourself, it is very dangerous, and you have to drive ready to jump out in a emergency, because they are very common. If you make one little mistake on the road you are not only putting your own life in danger, you are putting every truck driver who is on the ice's life in danger. It is very cold in the north and if your truck breaks down which is not uncommon, you could get frostbite in a few minutes if the heating system stops working. if you have to go out of your seat and go fix a part on the truck it is very cold so you have to do it quick. Many things can and do go wrong on the road and you are stranded so there is nowhere you can stop to get help, it is a very independent job, meaning everything is on you. If you mess up in anyway and damage the equipment you are bringing, you will have to pay because that is your fault. It is a very stressful job and can be very risky.…
