I should have said "the idea" of driving... I have never driven a truck. Still just considering it.

This is my greatest apprehension about driving. I ride my motorcycle in the rain when I have to but driving those immense machines thru the Rockies during a sharknado scares the cussword out of me. How do you guys deal with that?

I've applied to a company that only hires drivers within a 100 sq mile radius of their HQ. They've asked me to provide copies of my W-2's during the screening process. Is this normal?

Driving on ice
Ironically, I used to drive a delivery truck and a milk truck (not the tankers) in S.E. Pennsylvania. I drove on ice covered cowpaths congested with BMW's, Mercedes, and other expensive cars that the rich folk from the Main Line (Old Railroad money descendants) drove. Never had an incident. I really don't know where this apprehension comes from. I guess I was under the impression that you didn't have the option of stopping and waiting for better conditions. I just assumed the company expected you to soldier on through it, "That's what we're paying you for!" Now that I know I have the option of stopping, I'm a little less concerned.
