Trucking: Tractor-Trailer Driver Handbook/Workbook 3rd Edition

I actually bought this book because this was the text book we used in truck driving school. I wanted the book because we did the workbook as a team in class and each were responsible for several chapters. However after looking through the rest of the book, I found it beneficial to my learning.

I bought this book for a friend who thought he wanted to pursue a job in truck driving. He said he really felt that the book was very informative and that the information in the book would help him with his career in trucking

Product was brand new as they claimed and spotless!

Got a choice? Thinking about buying this? DON'T DO IT! Especially for the "new price." I got this used (here on Amazon) for 14.95 + shipping. I was excited to get it, but when I started reading it I got nothing, but disappointment. At the end of each chapter you have "Key Terms." The easiest way for me to learn things are to look up the definition of each word and study it (thus not having to read the entire chapter) thus getting the same result as reading the chapter.When I looked at the key terms I notice that from chapter to chapter there are repeats of 'key terms'. Not all of them, but there ARE repeats. That's not too bad though. I guess they put that in there like that to try to drill these terms through your head and force you to remember them.My biggest complaint about this book is the information within it. A lot of the time the definitions are completely outdated and NOT completely accurate according to the actual definition. (TRUST ME) Another thing I didn't like is how some of the Key Terms are NOT in the glossary at the end of the book. This is irritating when you start on the definitions (and have a good thing going) just to realize the fifth one on the list isn't anywhere in the glossary (not to mention some definitions are even hard to find on Google).Not all things are bad about this book though (thus the two stars). It is very informative about the (VERY) basic things in truck driving including CMV Regulations, and such things. In closing if you HAVE to pick this up for school take it's words with a grain of salt. There are so much better books out there; it's a shame we had to use this one.

bought for a trucker friend

Great for studying the aspects of driving a truck and understanding the actual parts and pieces of the various systems that a tractor/trailer has.

This book didn't just have some markings...it was previously used workbook with ink notes on almost every page. Still the material is what I needed...would have liked to read it without the mess.

I sent this to a friend so did not see the book but he was satisfied and it arrived in very good time.
