Test Taking Advice

Hey guys, there are many knowledge tests that can be taken for the CDL. I want to get all of the endorsements. I would rather not be slammed with taking them all at once. What is the best way to take those tests? Thanks in advance

Hazmat Endorsement Reward VS Risks

Hey guys, thanks for the insight. Now I know that me studying for the Tanker and Hazmat endorsements isn't a joke or done in vain.

Hazmat Endorsement Reward VS Risks

Hey guys, I was wondering if you all think that it is worth it to get the Hazmat Endorsement. I mean, is the reward worth the risks?

Skid Pads

Hey guys, do truck driving schools generally provide skid pad training to prevent both tractor and trailer jackknifing and controlling skids and things of that nature? Here's a cool video I found. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFgmzzCcGHQ

Teams

Our truck has a bed restraint that looks like a cargo net, here is a link to what it looks like.

It sets up to where it doesnt touch you while you sleep. It has kept me from being thrown in the floor by my partner during an oh **** moment lol.

Oh, thanks for enlightening me on that, guys!

Teams

Hey guys, I was wondering. When running teams, the idea is to keep the truck constantly rolling, for the most part. Do you all ever run into problems with wearing a seat belt? I mean, how can you sleep and wear a seat belt at the same time? Is there some kind of bed-restraint that is similar to a seat belt?

Spring Hangers for movement of axle

Oh great.. try to help a guy out and get reported!! Hahhah

There is a great video on youtube by apex driving school for pretrip that helped me. The parts are the same just in different places than what you will drive. It really helped me under d and study

Btw.. I'm not a bro lol

Haha, yeah, truckers, for the most part, don't like snitches nor snobby people. I, myself, am among them. Although, I'm not a trucker yet. We DON'T like being micromanaged. BTW, thanks for the tip on the Youtube video. LATER SIS!

Spring Hangers for movement of axle

Hey guys,

I was wondering if somebody knows what a "Spring hanger that allow movement of axle from proper position" is. That's a picture from the DMV Class A manual from California Page 2-2. But, that still doesn't tell me what a Spring hanger that allows movement of an axle from its proper position is. A clear picture or an explanation in la-men's terms would be nice, as well. Thanks!

Thanks!
