Breaker! Breaker! is a 1977 action film starring Chuck Norris.

Plot

When a trucker Billy Dawes (Michael Augenstein) vanishes during his first solo run, his older brother, J.D. (Chuck Norris), sets out in search of answers. What J.D. finds, however, is a deadly conspiracy involving a corrupt small-town judge (George Murdock) and a ring of thieves who prey upon unsuspecting motorists. Using CB technology, the Judge and his gang of henchman lure wayward truckers into their town in order to do them bodily harm. With help from a beautiful local woman (Terry O'Connor), J.D. searches for his brother and battles the mafiosi with his amazing karate skills, fighting all the way to an explosive final showdown that may just destroy the entire town!

The movie was featured on the May 24, 2007 episode of Late Night With Conan O'Brien where Conan used a "Breaker! Breaker! lever" similar to the "Walker, Texas Ranger" lever he used to showcase random scenes from the show for humor.
