My 2nd shot at the class A road test was originally scheduled for next Wednesday which had a nice forecast. However my training school called the other day saying they got my test moved back a day to Tuesday which has 80% of rain (I know it could change but whatever) I haven’t canceled my original test date yet so I was wondering if should suck it up and do it in the rain or try to keep the og date? Appreciate any advice

You going to drive OTR only in the daytime and nice weather?
Toomanybikes, buddyd157, BlackThought and 6 others Thank this. -
No of coarse not. I realize you have to WORK in all weather conditions. But is the rain ideal for passing a road test?
-
Yes it's almost the perfect time.. if you fail it means you need improvement .. I took mine in minus 40 weather during high winds which caused visibility issues at times ..

Your gonna be challenged with the rain weather when you get out on your own but you being green and all i personally do it on a dry day. Your gonna be stressing like a mofo already you don’t need that other stress. Their will be plenty of time to drive through bad weather. If you have control I’d do it in the dry.

Best to do your test in a snowstorm if you can. It actually happened to me and I think the tester was just impressed I didn't wreck.

Yes i'm sure you'll get lots of smarties saying oh you got to know how to drive in the rain however do what ever it takes to give you the biggest chance of passing if that means you got to reschedule your test in dryer conditions than do it, don't let other people influence what you do, your in control of your own destiny.BigBob410, Jcris4991 and Texas_hwy_287 Thank this.

AWW, sunshine driver.
is there a no rain restriction on CDL's? Maybe no ice, no snow, no crashing?

If it is raining, it's a awesome day. Just keep eye for tornados. (We actually are expecting a outbreak roughly sun-mon time frame... it's not firmed up yet.)Jcris4991 Thanks this. -
