Well I took my CDL Permit test on Friday... I failed but not that too bad.
GK - 100% AB - Failed Combination - cannot take
I know where I messed up on the Air Brake part , it wasn't the "trick" questions that got me either, I had a few on parts that got me and one on a pre "some year" and I got both the "leaking psi per minute on Straight Trucks and Combination screwed up. So, I may or maynot see any of those questions that I missed , so , I am studying that part of the book with hopes that I will pass that part that part as well as Combination when I retest on Friday morning.
You all be safe and thanks for the comments , some was VERY straight to the point and I am thankful for those as well as all the others.
