If I want to drive a school bus, and have my cdl A, can I just take the P and S endorsement test and the road test? Or do I have to take the entire general knowledge written test all over again fresh?

That's a good idea, I already spent 40$ and have to go there again tonight to 2 Walmart dc's from Texas

Thanks for the info. I have an ezpass but it does not work in Oklahoma or Florida.

I know about Oklahoma - I asked for and got an OK pass.

Maybe a dumb question, but how do trucking companies work the reimbursement for tolls? Do they add it into your paycheck for direct deposit?

Seems like you all know your stuff. But a little update on my incident: I delivered 2 loss off since this happened. On my way to Michigan for Thursday. No problems so far! I actually nailed a pretty tight spot (for me) at an aldi distribution center lol. One thing that makes it a bit more challenging is when you're delivering at 3:30 am and just woke up with no sunlight to help get a reference point. I got out and looked more than once, but hey better safe than sorry I guess.

How long have you been trucking g town? Seems like you know your stuff man

Man that's TIGHT!

No doubt, nothing you couldn't handle Theron...I remember our Walmart discussion from a few months back. When the day comes you like "backing" as much as you like "forwarding", you'll be ready for a 5X per day dose of this pure enjoyment!

There are a few actually "tighter and tougher" than this store (located in Glenolden PA). Most of the older stores built before 102" wide trailers were the norm (late 70's-early 80's), look like this. Lots of yellow-pole deer, hip walls, fences, light standards, narrow width and very limited set-up space. Because the dock width was designed to accommodate a 96" wide trailer, there is little room for error in having the trailer spotted directly in the middle of the door opening.

To be honest I don't think I did, but I am a rookie and tend to doubt myself

I was thinking about this post and wondering if you are sure YOU did it. It could be possible someone hit you in a truck stop since you didn't notice in pretrip.

I did soemthing really bad that messed up a trailer. It's kinda funny now to tell the story .. but. Still upsetting. They didn't even take me off the load.... they had someone else drive the bad trailer to prime.

I mean damage wise, I bent the side skirt. But it's not my truck. I certainly learned though.

Thanks guys 😀

Thanks for all of the replies. It helps calm my nerves haha. I'm preparing myself now for the scenario where my company will order me to pay for the damages. The truck will need a new thing side skirt, for a 2016 international pro star. Hopefully only a few hundred dollars.
