I'm not sure what that means. Trainer just said, "Can't have CDL while riding w/Chris, to wait to take the test" Have U heard anything like that? Doesn't quite make sense to me. Maybe it's so we won't be practicing in the truck.

I have had my license for almost 11 years. While my husband was alive, I did not always work, and when I didn't I would catch a ride every now and again with him. Got too bored sitting at home all the time.
I don't think your husbands trainer knows what he is talking about. Or maybe we are all misunderstanding. Either way, hope it all works out for you. -
That's the oddest thing that your husband's trainer is telling him. Maybe he just means the company wouldn't let you practice with him, with him being so new, so you'd get no practice in? Dunno. -
Thnx Sabine in Mo for your feedback, and I hope you will subscribe to my blogs and follow along w/us on our journey! -
I know that's odd what the trainer is saying. I'm going to post the question on May Trucking forum and see what feed back I get. When I do I'll updated here. -
But then again, there is no law that says you can't be a rider with a CDL, so who knows. -

Sunday will be two weeks out for Chris. He hasn't had any internet except one night at Bossleman.
His trainer has the new Pete 587, it's been in the shop three days so far, it will be in the shop tomorrow and if they don't get it finished they will have to wait until Monday and possibly Tues to finish. So needless to say Chris is learning the sitting and waiting part of truckingHe doesn't like it, but knows, it's all part of being a driver.
Chris might be at Payette Monday or Tuesday. He says he should be done w/training by the end of the month. Then is when I will find out if I can go out w/him or if he will have to team up w/another driver, we'll see!Trilleth Thanks this. -
Well, Chris' trainer is letting Chris go solo.
Yep,it's about that time!
When speaking with Chris last night he was in Yakima WA and was going to drop a load, at 7am this morning, in Selah WA, which is a county in Yakima. Then they are going to try and get a load to Brooks, then hopefully this will be it.
He can see light at the end of the tunnel.
As always, I will keep the blog updated!! -
Chris got his solo orders!! YEA!
We will be heading out on the Road on Tuesday for our first load.
He was issued a 2009 model "Peter-Built 387".
The truck doesn't have an inverter on it, but the company has them ordered, so we will have to have it installed in route.
We will take, the remaining of this week, and pack up and store the rest of our belongings and get what we need for the truck.
Wow, it's really happening.
Our lives are about to change forever!
