    I will and I absolutely respect the downside of inattention and pitfalls that I'm going to face out there...I think I'm smart enough to stay on the side of caution until I gain experience, I'm not going out there ####y and thinking that because I just got a CDL(which I consider a license to learn) means I can do it all, I'll be happy if I can just do it and not hurt myself and others...I've met some great people on this forum and have exchanged names and numbers with those that said, if it gets hairy or you have any questions, call me...I'm sure I'll be wearing out a few of those numbers!

    In the last 20 years I've had 3 hoods torn off by guys like you that thought that their positive attitude would get them through anything!
    What we're trying to do here is to help YOU understand that reality is VERY DIFFERENT from a school environment!

    Feel as good as you want to...But the way you have come into this site and lectured us and told us how we re all doing everything wrong and that YOU are gonna do it right no matter what happens, There are a good many of us that are quietly thinking that you won't last too long!

    You're ####y, arrogant, condescending and you think you know all the answers....That's a very dangrous combination in a driver, Rookie or not!

    You're ability to read and comprehend is very limited if you got that from my posts...My opinions were not unique as many others said the same thing, you're just taking it personally since I'm new...Funny how you didn't jump on the others that said they run 100% legal, that was telling...

    Sounds challenging and a good place to utilize the GOAL and think it thru before screwing up concept since it's not a test or timed event...If it takes me 5 or 30 mins longer than the next guy, so be it...Isn't that how we learn?...

    Better 'timed', per se, and waiting a day then ending my career over a drop...Sometimes we have to accept the lesser of 2 evils until we can avoid it... :)

    You continue to make my point with every post!


    Apparently you have reading and comprehension problems as well because....I'll writh it big for you, I RUN 100% LEGAL 100% OF THE TIME AND I HAVE FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS OR SO!!!

    I have previously stated that fact multiple times here.

    The reason that I singled YOU out is because YOU have NO real world experience and you come in here lecturing us about how YOU'RE gonna do it and how the rest of us are apparently azzholes because we are attempting to point out to you who already knows everything that once you get out on the road you are probably gonna experience a very different reality than the one that you fantasize about.

    The rest of the people that are saying they run legal are probably actually running legal and therefore can say that without looking like arrogant, condescending fools!

    YOU on the other hand are not running anything but your mouth and therefore have no business lecturing the rest of us!

    this is true... but also remember you go to the back of the line tomorrow. They don't reward you for doing things right but they will #### sure punish you if you don't

    I wonder how many will tell you you're full of crap for saying that(as they tell me, even staff here said it's impossible), I suspect none since you have experience, it's easy to pick on a newb...
