Is it really like riding a bike?

I stayed out of trucks for three years and then climbed back in like I was just out for the weekend.... But had been driving since '03 so there was ten years of experience. You may need a refresher since you hadn't been doing it very long.

 

6 months is kinda right on the border buddy. Do u still remember kingpin law, bridge law. Do you remember how to do a pretrip? Adjust you're brakes? Remember the weight limits?

Go find a study guide, read it and u should be fine

 

If you were good at it when you left, you'll be good when you return. If you sucked when you left, you'll suck when you start back

 

You should be fine after 15 min.

 

I can't even remember all the kingpin and axle weight rules.
I thought Idaho was 42 foot, but couldn't find any restrictions...

 

Kinda hard to be good at it with just 6 months exp unless one is an exceptional individual born to be a truck driver.I think he will be ok though.
For bridge laws just download "Bridge laws pdf",may save you some good money or just don't go to CT.

 

That made me laugh!

 

That's what I was eluding to. Either you have it (came naturally) or you don't

 

I was off work for a year for a motorcycle accident I was in, i just went back to work 4 weeks ago. For me I would say ya, it's pretty much like riding a bike. I didn't have any difficulty. I think you'll be fine. Take it slow and easy the first couple days you should be fine.
