    If you have experience ,when do you do the road test at Werner? Is it during orientation or after some time on the road with a trainer?

    Most likely at orientation if you are an experience drivers. Thaht way they will know how well ylu drive. If you have lroblems with the test they will put you with a trainer. If they are like swift... ir be for 50 hours ....which equals a week. Then you get another road test

    I'd venture to say 1500-1800,till they see if you'really dependable and not late etc.Don't believe the Recruiters"Your gonna make $56,000 first year"

    When I went to Werner as an an experienced driver they didn't road test me at all. This was at the Lithia Springs terminal in 2010; it may be different now.
