Why I am nervous about trucking

Do you ever get "Alice in Wonderland" syndrome? I stay out 5-6 weeks at a go, but sometimes I feel tiny sitting in the cab.

 

Like being in a go cart!

 

Sounds like some trolling going on here ??

 

Then try CR England, I heard they are top notch!

 

The first snowstorm and or chaining up for the first time is an experience never forgotton lmao

 

Dont know but CR England is king of the road, just ask anybody on here.

 

I just completed my 4th week trucking .

I was really nervous starting as well but I feel like I'm getting used to it at least driving wise. After my second week I feel fairly comfortable driving big rig unless I'm on a really tiny road. I notice people usually give me alot of space and generally just end up blazing past me anyway (my company governs my truck at 63 mph)

Otherwise, I'm still not used to backing , I've had alot of different truckers help me back into some awkward tight spots at shippers and consignees. Sometimes I'm alone and have to GOAL 4-6 times to make sure I'm not gonna hit a trailer or truck or something else.

 

Thanks for that GOAL, it's irritating to be woken up by somebody being overconfident and hitting your truck.
