A truck driver from Chicago is in hot water after bragging about driving for 20 hours straight with no sleep.
During a trip from Wisconsin to Lakeland, Florida, truck driver Kerry Cuthbert uploaded several videos and updates on his Facebook account describing his 1,500 mile trip, which he says he made in 20 hours of non-stop driving.
The post that got the eye of investigators read:
“… need to be in Lakeland by 6am Tuesday. Forget sleeping, $$$ talk.”
According to ABC Action News, Cuthbert also uploaded several videos, which investigators say were filmed with a hand held device while driving.
After reaching his destination in Florida, Cuthbert wrote a Facebook status saying “Gonna nap for four”
The company he drives for, International Logistics Group, says that electronic logs and driver-tracking technology indicate that he took a break in Georgia, however investigators say that the Facebook check-in locations indicated otherwise. A manager at his company later said that the Facebook posts were just “jokes” for his friends.
