    I am a new truck driver graduate and got a job at CTL in houston texas. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for me? The company transports chemicals including caustic, sulfuric acid, bleach and others. I need some help on my backing up though. Good luck to all

    Well, so much for the myth that you must have years experience to get one of those good tanker/hazmat jobs. Congratulations to you; backing just requires lots of practice and patience.

    Thanks everyone and yes I got lucky that they were hiring for drivers at the tanker company at the time.
