    Do you make jake brake noises while you are in your car? You shouldn’t make them when it’s raining. You could loose traction.

    No, unfortunately. They said the rollover training was weather dependent. We never saw an ounce of rain the week we were supposed to do roll over training, so they said we would be required to sign a waiver saying we didnt have sufficient training on rollovers( Liability issues)

    I still had enough credits to graduate without it though.
