    Company road tests usually just want to see you can drive on the road and at a customer without causing death & destruction. As long as you don't forget you are pulling a trailer & you can put a trailer in a door they often don't expect a pretrip other than looking to see if there is oil in the engine, lights work, all tires are OK, etc. If they ask you a question don't try to fake a good answer if you don't know. Say I don't remember but I'll look it up.

    Swift has a terminal near your location -- in Richmond, VA:

    Swift Transportation Richmond, VA Terminal

    I suggest you apply with them, as well -- you may well have better luck with them than I did.

    Nothing ventured, nothing gained....
