    I like where the wiper controls are. I drive a trash truck and the controls can be a pain to reach. We are in the process of getting new Peterbuilts and the controls for wipers are where passenger vehicles are, like a normal vehicle

    I will see if thats on the google play store. I do have another app but I figure the practice tests will most likely be different.

    Thankfully no work tmr/today I guess, so I can virtually attend the "general" part of the classes they registered me for. Which is the longest class of the four and probably one of the more important ones.

    Also does anyone know what the minimum score is for the CLP test? Just curious.

    Instead of worrying about how bad you can do make it your goal to do the best you can! Do well in your schooling and it will stay with you always. I re.ember when I went for my A license I work very hard at it, I took it seriously and did the best I could. I spent time with the veteran instructors and really applied my self. I became one of the top students in my class. 20 years later I still remembered things from my school that made me a good driver out on the open road. If your going to drive a school bus the you alone are responsible for the most precious cargo, there are no do overs for lives lost and no minimum score. I'm not ring to be critical to you. Just saying any cdl has huge responsibilities not only to yourself but to those around you. Take your training very seriously and be the best you can be.
    Learn well my friend and be safe.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    I think I read that the guy in FL scored a 30%. Should get him 20 to life...

    Professional driving isn't f@cking around. As Greg said, do the best you can.

    Forklift guy was there fixing my seatbelt and installing a fire extinguisher on my lift yesterday, told me that the new lifts might be there in 2 weeks. That'll work.

    Morning all. My partner is off the rest of the week so I’ll be working with the epitome of useless. Wish me luck. At least the weather is nice. Everybody have a good day.

    Serving at church today with my church family packing food for those in need, its very rewarding. It's my most happy place and I will have a great day and a good time there. I love the fellowship and spending time with good people, it's very refreshing in today's world.
    Remember to be kind drivers even to those that are not kind to you, it does come back to you.

    Yup, my Betty doesn't give me any grief. She is easy to please. Fix some things around the house and she's happy. You know you have a good woman when you say I'm going to harbor freight and she says I want to go too! Lol. Or when I say I'm looking at a new motorcycle and she says just go get it.
