    I think your worrying about nothing just go drive the truck it's not like they hand you the keys to your own truck following the road test they will see where your at and what additional time training or getting use to their equipment you need your a driver go drive the.dam truck.

    Honestly it was not that big of deal. Got through orientation and now I'm in my 2nd week of training. Great company so far, everyone has been helpful and respectful

    My reading comprehension is just fine. My comment was directed at you not Steel Maverick if you are slowing from 55mph to 30 mph for a red or yellow light you should drop some gears. The only reason to drop 25mph witout downshifting is an emergency situation which is not the scenario you were describing.
