    Never hurts to try.

    I am very happy with my choice to come here. It isn't all rainbows all the time, but they treat me well, and with respect.

    You can't ask for much more than that.

    Well, the medical reasons are basically DOT standards issues; certain illnesses or disabilities, certain prescriptions, drug use, etc.

    The sims are basically a virtual truck, and they put you on a virtual course with all sorts of hazards and conditions, and they look at your driving skills and habits.

    Failure in the final sim test can come from gross violations of standards or laws, failure to follow instructions, or not completing the test safely in the allotted time.

    You can supply your own transport, and be reimbursed the cost of a bus ticket.
