My brother works for a trucking company. And you are so right, no company would hire him. The companies have so many devises and rules in place because of liability insurance. There is a camera on the truck driver as he is driving. The driver can be monitored at any time. They count how many times the truck driver blinks his eyes etc.
My brother has traveled over 3 million miles. He never had an accident. Yet, he has to get physicals twice a year with his Doctors and the trucking company Doctors.
There is no way any trucking company would consider hiring someone that is 87 years old.

We retired at 62 in Feb 2016 so we haven’t been faced with any of things yet and that’s a big yet. Having gone from health paid for all my life to now Medicare, what an eye opener.
