Message:: [QUOTE="00Gambit, post: 9913945, member: 292984"]Yes I'm well aware how bad winters can be in Canada but I'd take a few weeks of snow storms over literally every working day driving on roads that are depressing, busy, narrow and having stop start traffic. Unless you've driven in the UK it's hard to understand but essentially because my country is so small, the roads are rammed from 6am to 10pm. "Long haul" in the UK, if you can even call it that, is the equivalent to local in North America. Imagine driving your class 1 local in a city like Minneapolis, Montreal or San Francisco all day everyday when all you want to do is be out on the wide open roads It's nice to hear someone who's done it and given us Brits a good name <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> and regarding the Eastern Europeans, we have the same problem here too, they're poorly trained by their home countries. We don't really have mountains but we do get a fair amount of snow up north, nothing compared to north america of course but don't CDL courses involve mountain driving?[/QUOTE]
