BigRigTravels was born on February 8, 2008 with just a 320×320 box that updated a LIVE image from my truck windshield every 5 minutes, a simple map, and I had to pull over every hour or so to manually update everything. This was the early way that we showed the world what we were looking at on the road. At the time, we were the only one to try sending images to the world this way. As I learned how to do things, we actually started sending LIVE video to that same 320×320 window – but could only have 10 viewers watching at once! Read more about us by following the link below.
So exactly who is this guy that streams all of his driving across America?
That would be me, BigRigSteve! I started driving a commercial truck in late 2006. I’ve always loved driving and running the highway since I knew how to ride my motorcycles and vehicles. There is so much to see in America and now I get to explore it all – for free! I served in the Air Force in Minot, North Dakota, worked avionics on private and corporate jets, been involved with television studios, and love photography. All of this experience comes together into what would eventually become BigRigTravels…
