Does your license come in the mail?

DMV can only use a physical address. They will not mail your license to a company. You're technically driving illegally since your license address is not correct. I'm at Prime now, wish I drove my car instead of getting the rental -my only regret.

List of fines or points

double-quotes-start.png

With my CLP, got stopped at the scale, had to slide the trailer axle to get legal, but no fines -could they have fined me? How much?

Can a student with a Permit (CLP) be ticketed by Law Enforcement?

I did have to go inside to speak with the lady officer. Perhaps my obvious naivete, and a little southern charm, got me off the hook.

Looking for a link to explain fines, csa points, and associated costs. Does the, company, driver pay costs of fines? Is CSA score impact driver and the carrier?

Greater discrepancy between dispatched and actual mileage

Very little chance of getting closer to the correct mileage if you say nothing. Likely testing your resolve, don't be a pushover. But choise your battles.

Everything is moving along here. Day 14.

CDL Exam this Friday.

Have driven about 1,900 miles. Last load from Charlotte NC to Staten Island NY: plumbing supply yard in a heavy traffic and small streets, telephone poles have deep truck scrapes. Told trainer wasn't safe for me to navigate that corner with traffic.

Really like the truck stop (Love's) shower rooms! Clean and large.

Truck is slow!! 57 or 62 when on the cruise, but it gets the job done.
