Week 4 Day 5: Morning road trip. I drove 26 of 75 miles. After lunch we took our final school tests on each of the five yard exercises, stopping, straight back, serpentine, right turn, and driver side dock. Then we took our final exam on Federal Motor Carriers Regs, 50 questions. We all passed, so next week we will do our final test on coupling and uncoupling, school road tests, then begins our CDL tests with the State Police Examiner on Wednesday and Thursday.
