Just a quick shake down of how your weeks will flow. First weekend will be introductory to trucking. You will get your first log book do your mock applications and so on. Second week computer and simulator work and no more class work for the weeks that follow. Side note, if you Dont have your class A permit I suggest if possible get some study guides online and get that thing OUT THE WAY. One will be provided from road masters driving school as well. The reasons for getting it before you start school if it is possible is because, the time you could be spending on getting your etreads done and out of the way you use that time studying HARD for your permit which makes it hard to keep up with the people who do have their permits already. Your third weekend is straight and offset left and right backing the truck, pre-trip inspection , more backing, shifting inside the truck, and on road practice IF YOU HAVE YOUR PERMIT. Coming to the forth week to my knowledge we will be ally docking and parallel parking on both blindsides and driver side. If you want a more in depth description I'm new to this so if its possible follow me, shoot me a message or simply reply to the post.
Pre-trip Inspection:
A pre-trip inspection is a thorough inspection of the truck completed before driving for the first time each day.
Federal and state laws require that drivers inspect their vehicles. Federal and state inspectors also may inspect your vehicles. If they judge a vehicle to be unsafe, they will put it “out of service” until it is repaired.
