Survived New York And Jersey!
Topic 15421 | Page 1
You did the Brooklyn run in Phase III with your trainer, right?
Abeline requires new hires to do a NYC run, before upgrading to solo.
Expect to do a bunch of NE stuff. If you keep up with Johnboys thread on the other forum (and I see you posting there), you'll get a good idea where folks are going.

Congrats!! I am new to this trucking thing. but I've heard horror stories... but if you can do it. I can too. 'hopefully" I think thats the only thing that worries me sometimes.. driving in Jersey and NY
Surviving a run to NYC unscathed is no small feat! Congrats on that!
Yes Flatie, that's a significant accomplishment for a rookie driver. Whole different world.

So I did my first Brooklyn and Jersey yesterday and thanks god I survived! Paying attention and twist ur head 360 if you need to if you ever go to Brooklyn. The traffic is crazy. Narrow Bridges and roads, Folks in the streets . I really thought I will be frustrated but I did okay with the entire trip.. I even enjoy the shopping after I dropped the load. If they will give me another load to North East again I will not hesitate to go! So far so good it was a great experience! :)
