Lola the Truck Driver (Spanish:Lola la trailera) is a 1983 Mexican action film directed by and starring Rosa Gloria Chagoyán, and Irma Serrano.^[1] After her father is murdered, a young woman begins driving his truck so it won't be repossessed. With the help of an undercover detective, she tackles a major drugs baron.

The film was a major commercial success on its release, earning $1 million in Mexico and $2.5 million in the United States. This represented a large profit for its backers who had spent $150,000 on the production.^[2] Several sequels starring Rosa Gloria Chagoyán as Lola followed beginning with The Kidnapping of Lola in 1986, as well as other films that tried to copy its style.
