I was just checking my emails through my driver portal. I see one in there from my otr training. We had a tire blow out on the hwy from no fault of mine. Just driving..Well the tech mechanic called Swift about a bent rim. I didnt see a bent rim jjst an old looking one. So I assume Swift thinks I hit something. Hence the fact they wanted me to take photographs.. This feels unfair.. It was just a blowout probably due to road conditions, tire condition and weather changes..

With Swift, that the first few weeks are developmental? Easier runs that make it slightly smoother for the rookie.. As usual, thank you.

Thank you for the motivation and confidence boost, guys. I will post my progress. :)

I drove 23,658 miles in five weeks with my o\o mentor and I still feel I need more otr training.. Is this normal to be like this? Thank you for reading.

I live in San Antonio and I work for Swift. What is the best way to find a partner for teaming? I talked with Swift already and they won't touch teams because of the liability, which I completed understand. Any ideas? Thanks again, board. Always a pleasure posting here.

Thank you.

Hello. I finished my otr training with my mentor. I drove 23,567 miles in five weeks. I'm getting ready to go out solo this week and I'm scrambling to remember everything. Any Swift drivers have a checklist of things to do daily or some sort of list they follow? Thank you.

Hey guys. Thank you so much for the reply's and good advice. I had a great weekend and I had a feeling a mentor would call today and one did. He sounds professional and has a lot of experience as a trainer. I'm ready to listen and learn for however long it takes. Thanks again. Have a good one. Talk soon.

Hi Everyone! I've been reading this site for awhile and I think it's loaded with positive information for new guys like myself. Last Thursday, I completed the orientation process and I'm waiting on a trainer\mentor. I was informed that there weren't any mentors near the terminal, so all 8 of us were sent home or back to the hotel. Since center I live in San Antonio the drive from Laredo was quick. My question is, are there any good trainers around San Antonio that need a student? I don't care where home base is because I just want to get an excellent education. I want to learn from someone really good. Weird question, I know.. Anyway, have a good day.
