Assistant: Ah yes, you’re referring to citizens band radio, or CB radio. Well, in the United States that is used mostly by truckers, but I do know that there are still other users as well, for example, members of different organizations, as well as individuals. For example, in the US, law enforcement and first responders use it, for security reasons. In addition, it can be used for helping to arrange carpools and sharing information with local residents about traffic.

Assistant: Yes, they are still in use, and a lot of truckers have them.  In the USA, for example, anyone can buy a radio license that permits them to use the radio channels and pick up voice traffic on CB.  For anyone wanting to make use of the channels, the license is also required.
