    I feel you 100%. My only critical event was during TNT driving through Charleston WV. Going 60mph around a curve going the speed limit. I didn’t know it happened until I switched with my trainer and he let me know I got a critical. Didn’t even feel like it was unstable. But those curves are no joke. Gotta take it easy in West Virginia and have some stamina. I was driving overnight too. Not the place you want to be tired driving through

    hahaha welcome to the mountains; the fun part is when you leave the Interstate highways and run two lane roads on the winding mountain roads. You will see things that seldom repeat in life; that is also when the danger of driving in the mountains really kicks in, seeing clouds go by and there is no shoulder to the road, only a little guard rail.
    Then keep in mind running those roads in winter with snow and ice; not a fun time, get ready for chains and tow straps, prepare now for what is to come later in the season, especially in the OTR life.

    • @RomaneTheTrucker
      @RomaneTheTrucker  Месяц назад +1

      Yeah I am OTR, I can only imagine those mountains during bad condition. I know I will be going at a very decent safe speed. I was happy when I got a straight and flat road yesterday. I will be making videos about my winter experience so stay tuned. Also chaining up will be a pain in the @$$. I hate the wind, one time I thought I heard a big rock hit my trailer, but it was the wind 😂😃

    I went OTR “training” in May and it was my first time driving thru any hills/ mountains, first time driving a semi especially in Virginia. I live in South Texas about 20 minutes from the Mexico border all we have is straight roads! My “trainer” pretended to be asleep while I figured it out, I drove from Tennessee thru Virginia a total of 386 miles before I couldn’t drive no more. I had no training in the Jake break, didn’t know there was levels, and my trainer didn’t help at all until I yelled for her to come and guide me because being a first time driver I felt like I was loosing it. This was day two of my training, I’m no longer at that company. I understand you completely on those Virginia mountains, it’s no joke!

      I’ve heard PA mountains are bad, but I haven’t seen it all except the long straight steep mountains which can be dangerous especially if you’re heavy. VA mountains I only got a small piece of it, but it was very similar to WV mountains. I guess depending on where you are in Virginia the mountains can be similar to PA. But that whole PA, WV, VA area have some crazy mountains. They are three states in the same area.
