DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The trucks roared into town on Friday for Daytona’s Truck Meet to start the weekend. Truckers are either spending time using the track at the Daytona International Speedway or showing off their rides around town and at the beach, where some families have already started their holiday weekend.
Daytona Beach Mayor Derrick Henry said he has some concerns having the event during one of the busiest weekends of the year.“It is their behavior and how they interact with residents, businesses, and our beach,” Mayor Henry said.Henry said it’s good hotels are full but believes it’s not necessarily the truckers who are spending the money.
