    I watched this video quite a few times and learned Roberts method, terminology and the order in which he does the inspection and brake test. He has a great system, learn this video an these are the key components to cover, not more and not less. I just passed my CDL Class B skills test today on my first try here In Arizona. Thanks Robert and CDL College this video was great and I recommend it to anyone going for their Class B CDL.

Just quit a longtime career as an OTR driver , running primarily Northeast (tractor trailer). Your life truly relies on this pretrip stuff. Watch it with these trucking companies! Most of them are underfunded on maintenence , and there's a shortage of mechanics equal to the driver shortage . Best Wishes and safe travels!

    Use the terminology. Use his systems. Be robotic. It lets the tester know that you know what you’re supposed to be doing. Most importantly, use the advice at the end. TAKE YOUR TIME.

It was as if the instructor cared nothing but finishing every session so he can get back to relaxing. So I took my chance with learning on RUclips.

    While you’re taking the driving test (road/highway) you must obey these rules.
    •Make stop completely to all entrences to roads including yeld signs.
    •Must obey “on&exit” ramp posted speed limits and signs
    •Must safely stop at stop lights. If light turns yellow before truck crosses white paint stop lane, then you have run a red light.
    •No right turns on red light
    •Watch for double turn lane > go to propper lane.
    •Must maintain the flow of the traffic, and get up to speed as to not impede traffic. VERY IMPORTANT!!!! Must stay within 5mph of speed limit always when safe to do so.
    • Must look door mirrors every 5-8 seconds.
    • left turn one lane into 2 lanes - Do not enter into the right lane. Make the turn from the designated lane(use left lane)
    Right turn one lane into 2 lanes - do not enter into the left lane. This rule it’s considered illegal in some states and it only applies for class A drivers but you still got to change the lane asap after the turn.

    • @honeyhahn
      @honeyhahn 5 лет назад +12

      A light turning yellow as you cross the white paint stop line doesn't indicate running a red light. If the light turns red before you cross that line it is running a red light. If you are in the middle of an intersection and the light turns yellow you are obviously fine.

    I took my CDL Road Test a couple of days ago and passed the Pre-Trip portion with ease because of this video. The other 2 portions were easy, the pre-trip is the hardest part for those looking into getting their CDL.

    Just a warning for anyone in Illinois that does the test after watching this video, everything is fantastic up until the 3 part air brake test, for the air leak test DO NOT have the key in the on position it has to be off and then turn it on to pump the breaks, I got an auto fail because of it even tho I did everything else perfectly, this is a fantastic video and I highly recommend it, just double check in your states book about that bit

      Yusef so I shouldn’t let the truck stall by letting it shut down by itself. To hill start a striaght truck is to let the clutch off about 50 percent and let go the brake immediately and press the accelerator right. To make right and left turns is same as car right. Because it doesn’t come with electrical and service air lines.

    • @bryankim3896
      @bryankim3896 5 лет назад

    FANTASTIC video - HIGHLY recommend it - practically memorized it for my passenger endorsement pre-trip (adapted it for a passenger vehicle). The phrases 'not bent, broken, or cracked, securely mounted' and 'no abrasions, bulges, or cuts, securely mounted' were IMMENSELY HELPFUL. Kudos and many thanks to Robert, nice work, definitely.

Had to start from the front and work my way around the entire truck, but the key phrases and top down method made it easy. Also, my truck was certainly not perfect but as Robert says, it is important to point out all and any imperfections! My tester was very impressed! Thank you so much for the video!
