Joe and Paul Fabrini are two wildcat truck drivers struggling to stay one step ahead of their creditors. Their job requires long hours on the road and prevents them from getting enough sleep. Paul’s wife worries she’s going to find herself a widow some day and for good reason. Joe, Paul and a hardboiled waitress they pick up hitchhiking are witness to just how dangerous the business is. They watch in horror when the driver of the truck ahead of them falls asleep and runs off the road; both men inside die in a fiery explosion. Eventually, Joe goes to work for an old friend, who now runs his own trucking business. Ed Carlsen is rich and successful, but he’s still a regular fellow and hasn’t lost the vulgar manners of his class. This annoys his wife Lana to no end. She’s clearly nouveau riche herself, but wants to rise above the low-class antics of her husband. And she’s in love with Joe, who wants nothing to do with her. This drives her to commit murder.
