    Another couple of days hitting the streets and highways. Nothing exciting, stopped at a scale house and talked to the State boys and DOT inspectors, watched what exactly they do inside. Pretty simple for them to catch a weight issue. Drove into Indiana, back to Ohio, then to and from Kentucky. Four more days then orientation next week, cant wait to get going! Be Safe!

    Another day beating down the streets, I drove first this morning and started out taking a left turn too fricken wide, didn't hit anything, slapped on the 4-ways, backed the tractor and finished the turn. :biggrin_25524: The Freightliners dont turn like the KW's but it was still my fault. Nothing hurt but my pride. Everyone got about 2 hours each so very productive day. Be Safe!

    At last, the day finally arrived. We all loaded up in Bill's Freightliner andheaded out for about 5 hours, everyone finished up their hours and we headed back to the yard in Trenton. Did lunch at Penn Station then went back and finished up paperwork. We're all graduates and all that remains is Orientation next Mon thru Wed. Wizz Quizz on Monday first thing then paperwork to complete our time in Trenton on Wednesday. Myself and most of the others will be leaving out on the 20th with trainers, time to get rolling.

    I've got to say the time in Trenton has gone fast and Bill kept us interested with his "stories". Met some good people while there and also met some of the drivers here on the forum. Look forward to meeting others and getting some miles in. Be Safe everyone and look out "Curtiscurse" is out there on the highways as well.

    I will be closing this thread and opening a new on for my on the road time. Thanks everyone for your input! :biggrin_25514:
