LOL. That reminds me of the day I took my driving test (during DOT blitz week). I was early for my appointment, so I parked the truck and trailer on the shoulder of a city street and went in for a coffee. When I came out, a cop was checking it over. He asked to see my license and I said, "I don't have one yet. I take my driving test in 15 minutes". "Come by and see me at the arena when you're finished". So I got my license and got DOT'd 30 minutes later LOL.

Update
Well Coastie still Running hard and strong.
I did turn in the Truck I had leased, but now I am buying a 378 Pete. A cost cutting deal.
Times it hard to believe we are in bad economics times, for I have to fight to get any rest.

Love that Pete you have now. As a current Coastie looking to get my CDL, I'll be keeping an eye on this thread to see how you're doing.
