摘要: Thomas Frain spent more than two decades pulling refrigerated trailers in the foodservice industry, including 18 working for Sysco. Now he's towing tanks for Highway Transport-and bulk logistics is better for it. Bulk Transporter sat down with the veteran driver soon after he secured National Tank Truck Carriers' 2021-22 Professional Tank Truck Driver of the Year award to learn more about what lured him from reefers, how tank trucks compare, and how he's stayed safe for 2.3 million miles. Questions and answers are edited for space and clarity. Bulk Transporter: How does hauling temperature-controlled trailers compare to tank trailers? Thomas Frain: "There is an enormous difference between hauling secured and unsecured freight. With bulk products, you have 'surge,' and it requires more attention to stopping distances, how you start the truck, and how you ease through a green light or approach a red light, to maintain that cushion between you and the vehicle in front of you."
