I think you will have basically a impossible time finding class A work. MAYBE dump trucks if you are lucky but having so many limitations right now is going to he hard to overcome.

I say go for the manual, pass the test. If i did it you can as well!

You may never drive a manual outside of school, but one day there maybe a job you want woth manuals and it will be beneficial to not have the restriction.

I'm glad to hear you are mostly ok!

Winds like you encountered are extremely hard to predict. I've encountered it on my boat and in my car, but luckily never with a truck.

Back like a bad rash from that lot lizard.

This was good

Congratulations! Good luck with your new career.

Mine went off just today for a " stationary object" I was like it's called a bridge.

Our Internationals hit the brakes for no reason which scares the crap out of everyone whos driven one. They mistake road name signs for speed limits. So it will see a sign for Indiana 35, beep and disable the cruise because it thinks you are doing 65 in a 35.

What got you into trucking? What keeps you going?

I'm not very smart, but I can make over 100k a year so that's why I'm in trucking and why I stay.

What’s the hardest part people don’t understand

The way other people drive, completely reckless, clueless, selfish or inconsiderate.

How about self-driving lawnmowers

Then, prove you can consistently mow any lawn safely and efficiently, while the kids and pets are running around

Funny you mentioned this, I literally saw one today mowing the large empty field at the mall. It got my attention because it has a bunch of flashing lights on it, and I was like "oh there is nobody riding that one".

I'm not really going to worry about self-driving trucks until the lane departure and collision alerts on my truck can tell what is and what isn't a concern.

Based off your posts the last few months I had a feeling this was coming. Still surprised to see it though.

Good luck in your new company! I'm sure you will kill it there as well.
