    Tomorrow I have my first and I hope my only road test for my Class A!

    Just wanted everyone to know.

    Pretrip - CHECK
    In Cab inspection - CHECK
    In Cab Air Brake Test - Check

    Now I just have to NOT bump any curbs or take a light pole out of the ground.

    Listen. You will do just fine. Stay calm, take your time, think about your next step.
    We are always interested when someone takes the test. Let us know how you did.
    Good luck.

    Just relax and have the attitude that your in the cab by yourself. Dont get overwelmed by the person in the rt. seat watching you.

    Thanks for the good lucks.

    I will continue to do what I been doing and that's talk to myself the whole time. I'm not worried about how I drive the truck, I'm concerned about some dummy in a car doing something stupid to cause me a "instant fail"

    Update to come tomorrow afternoon

    As crazy as this may sound, don't over think it. You'll do fine and have your CDL tomorrow.

    I was more worried about shifting, didnt bother me the officer sitting beside me. Just swing wide on the corners, take all the room you need. Out here some places arent big enough to turn a long nose with a 53, but you make it. You'll be fine, Good luck.
