Trucker stays professional as fuel stop interview goes viral

A video posted online shows a truck driver getting interrupted by a roadside interviewer while just trying to fuel up and go about his business.

What happened: The incident was shared on June 10, 2025. The driver was stopped at a fuel island when a man came over with a camera, asking standard questions like how long he’s been driving, whether the pay is good, and his favorite truck.

The driver handled it professionally, but you can tell he wasn’t too excited about being interviewed during his fuel stop.
“Just trying to get through the day,” the driver said, as the interviewer continued with more questions.

Why it matters: Truck stops are fast-paced and busy, and most drivers are focused on the road ahead and getting their jobs done.

The video got attention because the truck driver stayed polite, but wasn’t interested in chatting while on the clock.
