English Summary:
In the Arizona desert, truck driver Martin "Rubber Duck" Penwald is passed by a woman in a Jaguar XK-E, which leads to an encounter with a state trooper. Proceeding on his way, Rubber Duck runs into fellow truck drivers Pig Pen/Love Machine and Spider Mike, when another "trucker" informs them over the C.B. that they are okay to increase their speed. The "trucker" turns out to be Sheriff "Dirty Lyle" Wallace, a long-time nemesis of the Duck, who extorts them for $70 each.
The truckers head on to Rafael's Glide-In where the Duck's sometime girlfriend, and Lyle's wife Violet, works as a waitress. Melissa, the driver of the XK-E, is also there; the car broke down and she had to sell it and some of her belongings in an effort to leave Arizona, as she's due in Dallas for a job. The Duck offers Melissa a ride; Violet is unimpressed and ushers him away to give him a special birthday present. While they're away, Wallace shows up at the Glide-In checking plates. Pig Pen and Spider Mike start making fun of Wallace over the diner's base-station CB radio, leading to Wallace attempting to arrest Spider Mike for "vagrancy".
Hungarian Summary:
"Gumikacsa" az országút királya. Akár társai, ő is naponta bosszankodik a szándékos kellemetlenséget is okozó rendőrök ellenséges magatartása miatt. De míg a többieknek csak a szájuk jár, ő cselekvésre szánja el magát: amikor egyik sofőrtársát igazságtalanul megbírságolják, lázadást szervez az országúti rendőrség ellen. Hőssé válik, aki azonban hosszabb távon nemigen tehet semmit a törvény őrei ellen.
