and then you have to learn all about tacho regulations, drivers hours regulations, cpc, driving with heavy loads on board, strapping loads, distributing your load evenly, dealing with muppets in the office who dont understand a truck can only go so fast and that tacho breaks are not advisory but mandatory!!!! but, its a trade at the end of the day and i LOVE my job, my own boss while im in the cab, listen to what i want on the radio and see the outside world rather than an office.
good luck
