That would be endorsements not endowments. Lol autocorrect
Went for my physical today. Passed with flying colors. Blood pressure 108/72, vision 20/15, heart rate 66. Wish every test I take would be this easy. Been studying for my permit and will probably go on Friday to take the test.
I was thinking about taking on as many endowments as they will allow when I go for my permit. Any draw backs to that? Hazmat , doubles and tanker are on my list. What do you guys think?
Explosive, flammable, poisonous or otherwise potentially dangerous cargo. Large amounts of especially hazardous cargo are required to be placarded under HAZMAT regulations
Refers to pulling two trailers at the same time, otherwise known as "pups" or "pup trailers" because they're only about 28 feet long. However there are some states that allow doubles that are each 48 feet in length.
Congrats on passing your prod and poke!!
I studied the High Road and got all of my Endorsements at once. Two months solo with Swift and I am currently hauling my 3rd HM load as we speak. I get paid a Flat Rate $35.00 extra for HM. That is an additional $.07 per mile on a 500 mile run. Go for it, none of the tests are really that hard if you have studied.
