Summary:
Driving tractor-trailers - a seemingly simple activity, but in reality, a complex system of moving goods from one location to another. Driving tractor-trailers - not just a job or profession, but an experience. It will change your life. But it is not short of challenges (and a sharp learning curve).Many who step foot through those doors come to the conclusion that they made the right choice by going to a trucking school and getting a CDL, until they begin driving and realize the industry (and driving tractor-trailers) is a lot different than they were expecting. In this guidebook I will share with you The Johnson Method, which is a tried, true, and actually safe driving performance I learned and utilize myself. Know what you are getting into BEFORE you sign that contract! Learn from the best of the best - a wise, keen, and knowledgeable driver, who actually train newcomers in the industry. Yes, I'm a New Driver Trainer, and I have a lot of important information and interesting insights to give you!Learn everything from greasing the 5th wheel, sliding the tandems, how to properly perform an alley dock, drop trailers, hook trailers, sliding the 5th wheel, loads, big rigs, weight limits, how to use a weigh scale, keeping your paychecks high (and your work easy), and much more! Learn all the things they don't teach in trucking school, and gain insight on the basic structure of the trucking industry.
