    Ok, I have not had any major moving violations, no dui's but I do have a bit of memory issues from the military. The most I have had in the last 10 yrs, was expired temp tags and one 9 miles an hour of the speed limit. Anyway, I don't have exact dates but I remember other violations. Just worried, since they have said you might get sent home if you don't remember cause they think you are trying to hide something. I have typed everything I remember up so I can just hand what I remember. I tried to get my mvr but the computer is being silly and only gets back to when I first got my CDL Class B in August. I guess Im just trying to be prepared.

    What does this mean?

    Associate Career Enhancement
    (ACE) Orientation / 40,000 miles
    Take ACE Orientation at Prime Training Center and pass upgrade skills
    test. Become eligible for a Success Leasing Truck or Company Driver
    position. Earn $750-$850 per week.
    Required: No accidents & must complete ACE,
    Driving Skills Test and Smith System.


    What is the 40,000 miles referring to?

    Does this immediately follow TNT?

    That is PSD and TnT miles combined. ACE upgrade is what you do to get out of training, and into a truck.
     
    JamesWilmer Thanks this.

    When you upgrade do you have to take another urine test?

    Not likely but you can be given a random if you happen through a terminal during your psd or tnt time. During my psd time we dropped in at Pittston and I had a random .

    So you're going right from TnT into a lease, and you have the bad judgement to "slip-up" on hometime?
     
    Highway101, Dinomite and FLATBED Thank this.
