    I'm on my last week out with my trainer. When I get back to the main terminal, I will be administered a fine drive test. Does anyone that has or is at Schugel, or can actually answer my question on if the final drive is essentially the same ola's the one from orientation? Any all help is appreciated. Thanks.

    He said he doesn't really know. It's been so long.

    Where will you take the test? It's probably just a road test that you go with the safety guy. Nothing hard.

    I'm assuming the New Ulm terminal. I did one in orientation. I don't know if it will the same route or not.

    Wow and he's a trainer? And he didn't call for you? Call you companies head trainer or training department.

    At Roehl they had to do a written test dealing with trip planning using a paper atlas and other various questions. A pretrip, backing test and road test. All stuff that you they should already be doing.

    Just to be safe and mentally prepared be ready to test like you did before you got on the truck.

    No sir, but you have to do all road tests in a manual.
