I hear that's the nonsense megas are teaching too. They've ruined the industry and are a major source of road incidents pushing that BS. The laws are the same all over the nation and the laws trump their company "training."

 

That's awesome your school instructors are doing the right thing. You just never know anymore. We learn from our mistakes and I'm sure you know what to do now to avoid this type of incident from happening in the future. Your boss could install a fender mirror for you too.

 

You only have to worry, if you got a citation, then hire a lawyer to fight the citation, in court i was going to make a turn wide, so i dident cause any damage to city, lady blow throw stop sign and hit my trailer tire, while I was already mid turn, got out and lied her rear end off, cop gave me a citation, of course because I'm a truck driver, bs charge, that I told him straight up see you in court and laughed, got the citation dropped, diddnt go on my record, as a experienced driver now, with several years of experience, don't trust anybody out here, I don't care who they say they are, it's your record and you should be worried about it, it's up to you to maintain it, I highly recommend if you don't have one get a dash cam, people cannot drive, they cannot accept responsibility for their actions, and they lie, as you move forward in your driving career you will witness it.

 

how the smith system is now. they preach the middle lane.

 

Do they really? That's very disappointing.

 

You didn't get fired. Count your blessings, don't ask questions, don't worry about your record, keep learning, and do better. In that order.
