    I start my two months at my local CC tomorrow. I'm excited and nervous. :biggrin_2559:

    I passed all three test, on the first try, for my permit. The practice tests( especially the air brake and combination)are excellent on this site. It helps to read the manual at least twice,but I truly think the practice tests here broke it down more because air-brake especially was like a foreign language to me. Thanks Site!

    Wish me luck! Hopefully in two months I will be a commercial truck driver!:O_o_1PIRATES12:

    US Express is good for teams, but not so good for solo drivers.

    If you go tankers, get a TWIC card. Google for nearest TWIC office.

    Good companies in Florida to choose from:

    SVTN
    Trimac
    CTL Transportation
    Superior Carriers
    Tidewater Transit
    Schneider Bulk
    Sunstate Carriers
    Rinaudo Enterprise
    Melton Truck Lines
    Sue Vinje Trucking
    Halvor Lines
     
    PikesPeak Thanks this.

    Yes it is! It was hard enough to work under the old system, now this makes no sense.
