London, KY., or some other state?
ANYONE can become a Truck Driver, even ex addicts, and Driving School personnel, as the proof is daily observed/witnessed/posted here at Trucking Boards!!
Truck Driving is not the last bastion of employment however it appears it has become such what with these newbie antagonists we've been seeing and THEY'RE EASILY SPOTTED by their simpleminded maneuvers.
The
professionalism in Truck Driving has long since disappeared from the times when Truck Drivers were considered KNIGHTS OF THE ROAD, and before when there WAS a BROTHERHOOD and many Drivers KNEW OF/ABOUT other Drivers.
Now we have the few Union Drivers and the majority of Newbies WITHOUT A CLUE.
Training programs and/or Training Schools sometimes actually teach Truck Driving, while most outfits simply teach "
How to pass the CDL tests".
It's sickening to watch these supposed Newbie
professionals (since ANYONE can become a "professional truck driver" without any time line other than 2-3 weeks unlike a REAL PROFESSION with Apprentice to Journeyman status and all the Accolades), that CANNOT BACK UP A COMBO without compromising other Drivers, CANNOT PULL FORWARD WITHOUT HITTING SOMETHING (like another Combo in a Fuel Lane), COMPLAIN ABOUT "THIS DOCK IS TOO SMALL, TIGHT", HAVE NO CONCERN FOR ANYONE OTHER THAN THEMSELVES (and often not even then), DRIVE a Truck like their personal P. O. S. 4 wheeler zipping in and out of traffic JUST TO GET TO THE NEXT OFF RAMP or pickle park!!
ALL SCHOOLS claim
WE'RE THE BEST which is their standard modus operandi for acquiring new students, while most of these training affiliations are no more than simple turnstiles: PAY SO YOU CAN PLAY, SIGN HERE.
Well Here's YOUR sign.
CHEERS!!
P.S.
It's not very easy or affordable to run the Breakdown lane to "merge into traffic",BUT WAITING FOR A LARGE OPEN TRAFFIC SPACE WILL HELP!!
