I must be serious for a moment(not that i am not ordinarily). How do Prime drivers tolerate that low of a top speed? has Prime truly become a 0-3 month experience type atmosphere?
ANY driver that says they are able to not get piissed at only being able to run 65 or below is a liar.It does not matter how much of a fuel bonus they supposedly receive or whatever,to only be able to run 65 or below is a stress builder and that driver does get aggravated and po'ed at that slow speed. having to stay in that slow truck cluster for extended periods will contribute to burnout and boredom and road hypnosis.If not,they are on some type of meds to prevent it. -
Last I heard, Prime paid 38 CPM for students right out of training, 43 if you take a light weight truck. I don't know how much their rates increase, but that's good money for a student/first year. That doesn't include the fuel bonus.gpsman Thanks this. -

You could listen to talk radio. You have to actively listen to what they are saying so it helps you stay alert.
