Walmart Shopper That Bashed Truck Drivers In News Report Responds To Complaints

The Walmart shopper that told news reporters that she fears for her daughters life because of tired truck drivers, recently posted a response after she received tons of negative feedback once the story went viral in the trucking community..

In case you missed the original report, check it out here.

In her response, she mentions that her father was a truck driver and the news station took her words out of context and edited it to sound more malicious than it was.  See her entire response below.

Some commenters have debated the validity of her apology, claiming that she just posted the message to get people off her back. Whether she’s being authentic or not, sending threats towards her or her family are way out of line and something we definitely don’t condone.

In order to improve the image of truck drivers, it’s important we act professionally under all circumstances.

With that being said, do you think her apology was sincere or just done in an attempt to lessen the negative attention? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
