Truck driver Martin is about to be made redundant. Even outside the statutory driving times, he is barely able to deliver his loads on time. Martin is at the end of his tether, but he needs this job. Reluctantly, freight forwarder Roland is persuaded to go on one last probationary tour. During a stopover, Martin is asked by the prostitute Ramona to give her a lift. At this point, Martin doesn't know that Ramona is fleeing from her pimp, who is closer to them than they realize.
