"Joe" (Jim Davis) is a trucker who falls foul of hijackers for a second time, arousing the suspicions of the police who discover that he has a record. Things only get more complicated when he is discovered transporting contraband. "Joe" quickly realises that he is being set up, but can he find out by whom before the cops conclude that he belongs back behind bars? It's quite a well paced little action thriller, this, that is just sadly let down by some really mediocre acting and loads too much dialogue. The usually reliable Paul Cavanagh isn't given enough to do and the really unremarkable Marcia Mae Jones ("Jean") way too much as we head to a predictable, but quite exciting, conclusion. Sam Newfield does a competent job directing this tale of roadway piracy that has a message for all potential customers about the extent of this real crime on America's roads in the 1940s!
