... or maybe trucking is not for you. Maybe trucking is not your TRUE calling. Just because you maybe want to drive and see America doesn't mean you have the skills and type of work ethic and motivations that are required. 70% of average Americans are NOT in any way cut out for trucking. It's ok, quit now while you can and do whatever it is you were destined to do. If it's sitting on a couch eating chips in your underwear, then do that. But don't get out here with loads that are crucial and heavy, long trucks that are difficult to navigate and kill easily if you have no business doing this line of work.
Somebody had to say it.

first SLOW down,plan each load and your route after you are loaded,,,Many problems new drivers have is time management,, Double and triple check every thing you do especially changing lanes. Oh and turn off your CB and radio to eliminate distractions,, When in truck stops and parking lots run in low gear only.

The accidents and late deliveries combined i'm surprised myself why they haven't fired you. At my company a guy I went through orientation with bumped another company truck 8 months later at a terminal and they tossed him out on his ear. What kind of accidents were they, and were they your fault? -
