    Staying fit hard for truckers
    MATTHEW C. DURKEE
    HESPERIA — At the Pilot Travel Center, truck drivers were lining up Monday to audition for a possible new CMT reality show about giving makeovers to truckers.
    They could use it.
    According to a Transportation Research Board report, truckers are more at risk than average Americans for a number of health problems. Obesity is rampant. Many don’t bother to wear seatbelts because their stomachs get in the way. About one in four have sleep apnea. Half of them smoke, compared to 20 percent of the general U.S. population.
    Government numbers say the trucking industry also has the most fatalities of all occupations. The Bureau of Labor Statistics says truck drivers account for nearly 15 percent of all worker deaths in the most recent data available, from 2005. (The death rate per 100,000 is higher for other occupations.) Of those trucker deaths, 80 percent involved traffic accidents, the bureau said.
