[QUOTE="Eric4Yeshua1337, post: 12185812, member: 336103"][B]Week 1: Day 4 [/B] Learned the concept of offset backing to the right. Did it twice. I think I understand it. Use tiny movements because we’re backing pup trailers they move away quick. No shifting practice today. Did pretrip, got it memorized to the steering part. Have the air brake check memorized now.

The HAZMAT part of ELDT classroom part is terrible. We as a collective body of students got so many answers wrong for a couple of times until we got it right. Lost one student.
