Making turns left or right from a stop
This is another reason I like my automatic. I can concentrate on those pesky tandems and not worry about shifting. I sometimes forget about canceling that blinker tho, lol
I wanted a auto but hard to find one to train in

I have called everywhere for cdl training i do have a disability called erbs pasley i have to have a automatic truck i know there out there swift has yet to contact me i know henderson has em i think what about roehl can anyone help me find companies with autos reason i cant do stick is because turning left from a stop or right from a stop it would be very difficult on turning and shifting and staying in lane. Lets say you tie one arm behind your back and try to drive it is very hard with a stick
