At Risk Driver

When a truck carrying $1.3 million in flu vaccines goes missing, Ohio's top Big Rig Bounty Hunters are called into action. They learn the driver suffered a seizure, is hospitalized, and has no recollection of where his truck is. Time is of the essence in finding this rig--and earning the $3,500 bounty--because if the truck's refrigerator isn't working, the vaccines will be ruined. As this search unfolds, a second bounty is up for grabs... A driver in a pay dispute is holding for ransom his load of nearly $40,000 in specialty lumber. The trucking company refuses to pay the ransom and reward bad behavior. So, in order to earn a bounty of $4,500 the teams must outsmart the driver and trick him into giving up his load.
