    Stop being such a scary cat. People have accidents changing the radio stations, slapping their kids in the back seat, drinking a soda pop, eating a burger, talking to the person in the passenger seat, putting on makeup. Guess you need laws and some scary dude taking pictures with their phone so they can tell the MAN.

    This is a horrible post. Trainers should NEVER be texting and driving, and also not yelling at their students. I know we have some poor trainers in this company. I've been given students several times who were dying to be trained, but ended up with terrible trainers. It's very likely this student is really stuck with someone that is just in it for the money.
    JTrain, did you get this resolved? You shouldn't have any issues switching trainers if that's what you feel is needed.

    Better lay off of all the meds you're taking,its interfering with your posting.What you do in your trk is your business but when you are training you do things the correct way to make that student the best driver he or she can be.Condoning texting while driving is not using your better judgment.No wonder so many new drivers don't learn much while in training.If trainers practice safety like their companies prefer then this op wouldn't have to get out the phone camera would he?

    Once again WOW. Let me guess your one of those who gets hammered drunk and drives too because by GOD you can do anything and it won't affect your driving. Pretty self righteous there. There's a difference in grabbing a snack, burger or taking a drink of soda than texting. I don't need to read the wrapper and then type to take a bite or drink of something.
    Scott's been to a few of those scenes with drunk drivers or distracted drivers and I'm sure it's what that person thought as well before they covered them up with a sheet or in some cases slapped cuffs on them.
    Personally I'd get off the truck and ask for more training. To me it sounds like the guy wants to get you tested out because he'll pick up another student and have them with him for a longer time than what you have left. That's my thought though.

    My trainer yelled at me everyday because I had zero experience and needed everything I could get b4 solo. In retrospect I have to thank him as I'm certain those corrected mistakes have saved my ##### so many times now.
