    Just have few questions. Yesterday i took my class B test and passed it but did get points counted against me and curious if ones may have ever heard of these type issues before.
    1. Got me for upshifting in an intersection.
    2. got me coz after i was under a light it went yellow.
    3. got me coz i was 3mph over the speed limit.
    4. also got me coz after each gear i didnt return hand to steering wheel before next shift.

    Now you know as well as i do there isnt much movement in a truck between 1st 2nd and usually 3rd before shifting.

    My pretrip and basic skills went ok.
    She got me on basic skills coz i failed to mention about not shifting across the train tracks.

    Mostly curious if anyone else has had a hard examiner or anything.

    In Canada CDL holders over 65 have to be retested annually . They need to pass a knowledge test and a road test .Quite a few have not had their CDL renewed because they missed 3 items on the pretrip .
