I know at my company if we are ever faced with that situation, they want us to just let the hijacker take the truck. Their attitude is we wouldn’t get in trouble for that because nothing is more important than our health, safety, and well being. A tractor and trailer can be replaced. Companies have insurance to pay for the loss of a load. But, a loss of life because you tried to be a hero can’t be replaced. If anyone ever tries to hijack me, they can have it.

Absolutely true that CA has the most hijacked/stolen loads in the nation. It just happened last week in Fontana, CA (which is one of the worst areas in the whole state for it) to one of the majors. Driver came back to her truck after taking a 10 and it was gone. Had been stolen. Tractor was abandoned behind some fence in a field. Don’t know whatever came of the load or trailer.
