The movie first starts out with FBI and ATF agents on a pursuit to stop a truck carrying illegal guns as part of an illegal arms operation. The result would be the death of the driver, which leads to a disagreement with FBI and ATF agents on involvement with the case, which would carry on throughout the movie. Then comes Jack Crews (Patrick Swayze), a truck driver who has just been released from jail for vehicular manslaughter, for accidentally hitting and killing a motorist on the side of the road during a trip in which he experienced a Black Dog hallucination. Along with his imprisonment, he also loses his CDL. Following his release, he attempts to get back to a normal life but this time holds a job as a truck mechanic for a local repair shop in New Jersey. He is then offered a job by his manager, Cutler (Graham Beckel) to drive a load of bathroom fixtures from Atlanta to New Jersey for $10,000. Crews initially declines the offer, but then finds out that his house will be repossessed unless he pays off his debt.
He then changes his mind and takes the job where he flies down to Atlanta to meet up with Red (Meat Loaf), who runs a trucking yard. Red gives Crews a truck to haul the load, and is accompanied on the trip by Earl (Randy Travis), Sonny (Gabriel Casseus), and Wes (Brian Vincent) for security. As they make their way to New Jersey, Crews experiences several run-ins with Red and his crew as they attempt to hijack the load, in retaliation for the failed negotiations with Cutler about money. During the trip, Crews finds out that his load also contains illegal guns, and that Wes has been informing Red of their whereabouts throughout the trip. Crews also discovers that Sonny is an FBI agent when he is shot and killed by Red during another hijack attempt, and that the FBI has been tracking their whereabouts as well. Read more
