    No matter where you go, or how much you pay. All you will learn is how to pass your Vehicle Inspection, Basic Controls Skills Test, and Road Test. It is really going to be up to you when you "get out there" to really learn, and it will take trail and error, don't be too big headed to take advice from the salty folk, they're not putting you down. They're trying to help you because they, like you, were once new...and trust me. We can spot you new guys a mile away just by the way you dress with your shiney new Peterbilt belt buckle, ball cap, and T-Shirt getting out of your Werner Freightliner.

    Less risk of losing a hood with less new guys.

    The road teaches you a lot. It's one thing to mess up in your local area with a trainer and another thing being thousands miles away by yourself. It's time to use common sense and a brain on the road.

    Surprisingly true. Noticing where the double tire skid marks were on the Interstates was like having an on the road power-point.
    LOL. You could see exactly where Speed Racer figured out he/she was going into the corner too fast.

    Noted. I don't think I would ever fit that description but good to keep in mind so you don't stand out more than necessary.
