    Direct tie downs are going directly from the article bring secured to the trailer. Like chains being used from a tie down point in a tractor to the deck. Indirect are where you use straps or chains to go over an article from one securement point to another on the deck.

    That's one thing I've found side I started looking at driving. I found this website and the apps for CDL test questions. After I failed my permit test the first time, I took 2 whole weeks of testing myself with a test questions app. Once I was able to knock out a 90% or higher consecutively, I went back and took the test. Made it with a 95%. I also keep the app on my phone and occasionally brush up on questions just so I can keep my knowledge incase I'm asked something and don't have a brain fart

    Alabama used to as well. Some Alabama companies still want you to get the coil certificate.
