New Issue..........Advance Release............First Edition Are you a truck driver student or graduate with little to no experience yet? Or are you a new trucking trainer or instructor but no one has shown you the best way to "teach," for both your student and you? What's the best way to stay out of trouble in an environment where everyone "must" get along, or someone dies? What does a student fear the most. . .and doesn't need to? . . .Page 4 As a new trucking student or graduate you know that "no experience" usually equals "no job," right?" Would you want to be the first patient for a dentist out of school, with no experience yet? I don't think so! You'll most likely have to "ride with" someone with more experience, hopefully, at first. Or how about if you're the one with "more experience", and now you have a "newbie" under your wing. How do you translate your knowledge to the student? What is the best method or process for teaching students? . . .Page 15 How does it feel to have your Commercial Driver License and, right now, worth "not too much?" You've spent a lot of time and money getting to a starting place, but it's hard to translate that into a "better life," if you have a family depending on you. And the same is true for new instructors and trainers who need to know how to survive out there, because if your student makes a wrong move, it gets real dangerous, real fast. What one characteristic will save your life over everything else? . . .Page 11 One company claims "first year drivers earn $82,000,"; the average is $50,000-$60,000. You can see your family on a path to a better future. The same goes for instructors; more money and a progressive path forward past a job into a career. What are two of the most in-demand professions: nurses and truck drivers! But you first have to learn the best ways to stay out of trouble while you gain experience, or nothing else matters. Where's the worst place, the most dangerous place, to park a truck? . . .Page 19 You can keep doing what you've been doing and hope for the best. Or you can do what I did, over thirty years: learn, digest, improve, etc., if you survive that long. Do you want to take thirty years to improve your family life when there's a shorter way to get where you want to be? Do you know how to shift the weight of a load so you won't pay a fine? . . .Page 93 Can you plan a trip coast-to-coast, even if your GPS freezes? . . .Page 70 Do you know how to challenge a ticket and go for a "not guilty" result? . . .Page 24 Do you know how to make a right turn, sometimes the only way you can? . . .Page 44 Plus the answers to over 400 other questions, and includes three free bonuses!
