Failed CDL Skills test air brake pretrip?

Well, he's heard the stories of bad truckers. But a few bad apples doesn't ruin the whole crop. Not doing a brake check is taking your life into your own hands. It's stupid to not check your brakes. It takes what? a whole 3 minutes to do a full brake check??? 3 minutes vs killing yourself or potentially multiple ppl? Same as doing a pre-trip. The fines and time lost NOT doing it are well worth the time it takes to do a good pre-trip.

 

He’s better than half of you guys because you dummies don’t know the PSI either.

 

I caught it cause I resembled the comment! Never been asked about 3 or 4 psi drop or just forgot good to know.At least he didn’t bust the front hubcap by trying to “knock” it back in after checking fluid. Ahhemmm

 

Thanks really Thanks

 

How can it "be stupid" when you knew exactly what was being tested and knew that you had to do it perfectly to pass?

You made a mistake. Big deal. Nail it next time.

 

I did not miss that.

I let it go. Im not going to blow the pipsqueak down for walking on water when he aint got the 4 psi answer right.

He will learn in due time out there.

 

We had someone do that at work. Swore up and down he didn't know how it got cracked. No longer with the company for other reasons. LOL.

 

I know the PSI I just wouldnt know the difference between losing 3 PSI and 4 on those dinky little gauges.
