i almost passed it again .... missed by 1 of the 10 I'm allowed to miss. Questions I never seen in the book like what transmission doesn't add gears.... ended up being automatic transmission. What do you do if u get stuck on railroad tracks.... answer is get outta the truck n away from the tracks?! I don't understand how trailers or semi get stuck on tracks unless it's too low to the ground? Any advice?

Sometimes a " lowboy" trailer will get stuck on tracks that are on a grade. Trucks could stall, drivers get stuck behind other vehicles in traffic and are sitting on the tracks and can't go.

Ok I can see that but how come they don't back up, If there's no traffic? You just gonna sacrifice ur truck if there's no train?
-
Also another question, how come you can't downshift going down a hill or curve ? I guess I don't understand yet obviously cause I haven't drove in that situation.

Just think lowest denominator when taking the test, do not read anything into a question, and do not apply common sense or logic.

Ok yeah I can see that. I'm just trying to understand where they are coming from and what you said sounds true as well.
