Read a little closer. I was referring to the statement made by the OP. I didn't have a problem with how I was treated. If this were a test you would have failed.

I tried just now to make as many corrections as I could. Again, I apologize for my mistake towards you.
If it is still not any better please let me know?

Yes, Anthony. All examiners are a breath of fresh air and people like me are just born whiners.

Failures happen, every day, to every one. Just suck it up and do better next time. If the DMV tester has a power trip, let him/her have it, as your future is at stake, not his/hers. The test takers could give a flip whether you pass or fail.
Wait till you get hired on someplace, and the dispatcher has a power trip. What are you gonna do then?
As THAT person CONTROLS you! -
Focus on passing not what is wrong with the test.Once you get qualified and go solo u can do whatever u want.In the real world truckers aren't that technical but at the DMV they do everything strickly by the book.
G.Anthony Thanks this. -

Theses trucks vibrate a lot.. and they run more miles then the average car or pick up truck.. bolts can come loose...
Maybe it is because I am an avid motorcycle rider.. and was taught to go over my bike.. that the concept of a pretrip made sense to me.... not to mention the fact that my life and livelihood depend on my truck running...
If you think the basic pre trip they teach you in school is too much... go find an O/O and watch him or her go over their truck.. I have even seen them take oil samples..
Again, I hope I am wrong.. and that you will learn to understand and appreciate the value of a good pretrip and not be one of those idiots that wait till warning lignts start going off before the tip the hood... -

While on the subject of pre-trips, it would serve you well to perform a thorough inspection on your truck before taking it in for its annual inspection. You'd be amazed (or not) at the drivers who'd bring in their trucks with flat tires, bald tires, shot brakes, leaking wheel seals, etc., then get mad at me because I wouldn't sign the form stating their truck met federal motorcarrier code.
