Indianapolis CDL schools and job placement ?

That's probably the "dock to driver" program. That's usually for people with only a cdl permit.

 

P&D work can be harsh on those knees. Loads of shifting involved with local work.

 

That's why I like us getting auto's at work. I don't need a standard to prove my manhood like some...
I just look around work, see all the 20 year guys out on leave for knee replacements and really don't want that...

 

P&D work is LTL...just local work. Getting good solid work with no experience for a linehaul route will take some time. Lots of LTL drivers....LTL forum....could give you good info.

 

I agree with you....When I came back, I wanted a manual, all I ever knew prior. BUT.... I have to admit, when the knees and hips age, in rush hour traffic ( pick a major cluster F area ) its like heaven.
Many moons ago, I was taught to skip shift, so a 10 spd was a 5 spd....than started to
"float" gears ( I think is what it's called today ), yet in heavy traffic, I still had to keep my left leg raised and ready to clutch in stop and go traffic.

Though there have been times I've thought of getting a plunger and place it next to my seat, to rest my right arm on....
