    The theory part is if you remember when at a cdl school unless you just fell out of ###### driving a truck is the classroom component where you learn rules regulations safety etc. My post was for students or brand new drivers. Super truckers can carry on

    How do you tell if it’s dirty water or hub oil on the wheel without licking it off?

    self taught, no school.

    pre CDL, only driver at the company, went from warehouse to 6 wheeler to 10 wheel straight truck to semi.

    had to figure it all out myself, well me and the DOT that caught me with no class B, or log book. company just handed me keys and said load these machines and go to Tenn.

    no need for the attitude. :rolleyes:

    No attitude here. There is a thread for CDL Schools and New drivers and thought I would post for the guys that may need some guidance. Every response was basically nonrelated to it. I am happy you were self-taught but unfortunately it is not the 70s anymore and guys may be looking for some help.

    I've learned over the years that any time someone comes on the forum and posts something like, "if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask," it always opens up a can of worms with silly questions and then turns into nonsensical back and forth. Happens every time. It's nothing personal and in fact sometimes we get some pretty funny responses. Then the OP usually never comes back and the thread gets closed.

    I know you are just trying to help, and that's appreciated, but be prepared for some shenanigans.

    Maybe you can settle the age old argument over the inside right only turn lane or the outside right only turn lane.

    Yup I just rolled a grenade in and walked away
