Yes for the time being. Got a chance to meet up with Red gator last night for a few minutes, and she keeps telling me I should do national. I may at some point but just starting to get better at the regional route. The time may come for me to go national, but not yet.
Regional:
Regional Route
Usually refers to a driver hauling freight within one particular region of the country. You might be in the "Southeast Regional Division" or "Midwest Regional". Regional route drivers often get home on the weekends which is one of the main appeals for this type of route.

Did I seriously think day 9 was stressful? Wow! Failed my skills, bam right off the bat. Took lunch, fretted about it, practiced some more, tested again. KABOOM! Why there wasn't fireworks I do not know! ZERO points. There were some tears of joy I will admit. Think I am still in shock, not sure how I feel about it. Relief I am sure, I will be on the road Monday! Going to go ice my knee lol. Decompress Phew what a day.
