Slow going while you're paid by the hour is fine...
Once you're paid by the mile then you need to make sure you stay safe and decide whether you're going so slow you are selling your 70 hour clock too cheaply. If you start going too slow you might be better off parking it until it clears up. If you are running in the west then chaining and running below 35 mph is part of the game to get over the passes. You can't wait until April.marvelfan Thanks this. -

@ marvelfan, welcome to the club. First things first - you are going to get a bunch of officers with big belly who will try to piss you off. Dont get defocused. Dont pay them no mind. Once you are through with the test, all you have to do is collect your CDL from the counter if they deliver on the same day.
marvelfan Thanks this. -
