The skid pad in a semi truck

[bigjohn141]

This is a video from the Schlumberger training center outside of Tulsa Oklahoma. All employees must go through training to drive company vehicals and this is on the last day, it makes the week to two week training all worth it. This is not me in the video but I did do this about three years ago and I must say it is almost as scary as it is fun because you can hear the wheels trying to grip and it does feel like you are going over.

I have to imagine that a ride like that in a truck that big would make the old pucker factor increase!

it's fun doing that on a single axle tractor on the ice.on purpose of course.
That's cool your company trains you.Mine just said,oh by the way,you need a class A CDL for this job.Your training was on you,with no help.And in 12 years I've only had to pull 3 trailers on the road.And 1 of those was the driving test through down town Indy.
