    @LuisSanchez-vu6uv Před rokem +1

    Quick question, do I have to make a quick stop and check both sides if I see a rail road crossing ahead? Just wondering because in the permit test it says that you can get your license suspended for at least 1 year if you don’t stop before a R/R Crossing to check. Also I’ve seen some busses stop before to check as well.

    • @CDLYeah
      @CDLYeah  Před rokem +2

      Great question. Certain vehicles need to stop. Hazmat, School bus, flammable placard, etc… some choose to. On your CDL test you need to look both ways for a train, listen for a train and if you don’t see/hear anything and the lights are not flashing you can proceed at the speed of traffic, you do not need to stop, you can do all that while continuing with the flow of traffic. 👍🏻

    so i took my cdl test last week and passed pre-trip, passed backing with an offset and an alley big yaaayyy but got very nervous because of the turns and bumped a curb so failed driving. if i turn left onto a two lane road from a single turning lane do i turn into the farthest lane and then back into the left lane to finish// or do i turn into the farthest lane and stay in the right lane since we are going to end up in that lane eventually anyways. I retest Wednesday a throughout the whole class i always drove perfectly fine but im a little nervous

    • @CDLYeah
      @CDLYeah  Před 11 měsíci +2

      I totally understand feeling nervous. It sounds like you’ve got a lot of driving done, so stay confident ✊🏻 that’s a big part. When in that turn stay wide and land in the right lane, anyone turning right from the lane across from you will have a yield to you so you can use both lanes as long as you have your 10 second window 🙌🏼 lmk how Wednesday goes, you got this 😎

    • @CDLYeah

    What is a safe gear to be in while making that left turn so you don’t impede traffic and or stall out ?

    • @CDLYeah
      @CDLYeah  Před rokem

      Great question ! The most common manual currently is a 12 speed with a splitter. In that, it’s best to get into 6th before the turn and to stay in 6th through the turn so that you can keep both hands on the wheel through the turn. Really good question. Are you on a 12 speed with a splitter or a different type of transmission ? 🤔

    • @jamesflynn10
      @jamesflynn10 Před 7 měsíci

      For me it's an Eaton Fuller 10 speed, 5th seems to be the best gear for a tighter turn in the city.

    • @CDLYeah
      @CDLYeah  Před rokem

      Great question, every situation is unique, best to ask your instructor for the best practices for that specific situation. I can tell you this, staying wide with an ample window of time and space is always a smart choice.

    @Midnight-Ranger Před rokem +1

    You say that in a right turn with two right turn lanes you should be in left most right turn lane to complete your turn. i understand this to not hit the curb with your trailer but arnt you going to hit all the cars that are making their right turn in the right most right turn lane?

    • @CDLYeah
      @CDLYeah  Před rokem

      Really great question 🙌🏼 Every turn has different circumstances obviously, our goal is the make certain not to “off track” into anything. By timing the turn, watching your convex mirror closely for your trailer’s lateral movement and staying wide through your turn you should be able to navigate all obstacles present. Some double turn lanes have off tracking space built in, which can be recognized by diagonally painted lines, in which case staying in the right lane is best. Monitor and adjust as you approach, stay alert for the signage/circumstances and don’t take anything for granted 👍🏻 you got this, really great question 🙏🏻

      Fantastic question 🙌🏼😁 Here is where you’d want to monitor and adjust to what you are seeing. If it is apparent they intend to roll through you can adjust your speed down to create a window. Each scenario is unique, so it’s to simply, monitor and adjust 🤓🙏🏻
