    I decided to join CRST at .18 a mile being a trainee. My one day my Trainer almost killed us. It was early in the morning and he was driving and didn't notice the road dead ended into a t intersection. We skidded into the intersection into a dirt road. I quit that the same day at the okc terminal.

    Thank god nothing bad happened. I had to trhow a couple of my students off my truck because of their crappy driving. One student decided to go down the Grapevine there in SoCal at 60mph fully loaded after I said many times no faster then 35 regardless of what the signs said. Needless to say at the bottom I threw him out at the petro. I never had an accident in the 5yrs and as of 6nos ago none of my past students had either.

    Even a new student should be able to realize how serious it is driving over a mountain. Some people just don't get it. I guess they don't realize how deadily it can be.

    I mean you can mess around an do what ever you want in the flats, just don't pull that crap in the mountains.

    I hear dJBS was bad sorry bout that Sanddragon...good luck....yea Bowman you can tho I did throw another student out on I-80 in Ut for almost blowing up my engine. I was sound asleep when the sound of my engine revving up to above 20,000 RPM. My trainee was doing 70mph in 8th gear without flipping the switch to bring it up to 13th gear. I yelled at him after telling him the same thing bout thte switch almost everyday for two weeks. So I dropped him off at our yrds in SLC. He wanted to come back on so I said if he had $10,000 for a new motor he could.

    Yea trainees can be a pain....threw out another trainee at the Petro at the bottom of the Grapevine in SoCal cuz he decided to ignore the speed limit and go down the Vine at 60mph. I told he was lucky CHP wasn't sitting in their spot and asked him why he decided hot to follow speed limit...he said the speed limit in Cali was 55mph. I said yea but on the Vine was 35 and then told him get his crap and get out if my truck I was not gonna have him rusking my life, his life or anyone else life.
