endorsements other than air brakes and combination

hehe... Glen Burnie was where i got my regular DL back in '88

Hm.... let's see. 2008 minus 1988 = 20 yrs PLUS 16 means you'll be 36 next year! WOW!!! You don't LOOK it! :wink:

I was stationed at Ft. Meade back in 76! And no..... I don't mean 1776!!

Oooh very close... I waited until i was 19 to get my license hon... and thank you for yet another lovely compliment.... although if you keep this up I may end up with my own complex :P :wink:

went back to get my tanker and doubles and triples endorsements yesterday. nailed the tanker test with a 95%. Missed passing the doubles and triples test by 2 questions. all the questions i got wrong on doubles and triples were the converter dolly questions and the airvalve questions. any ways im gonna back today and reattempt it. any advice?

I nailed it today. I got 16 out of the first 16 right. So I got my corrected learners permit with my tanker and doubles/triples endorsements. I was gonna get passenger but when I said i wanted to add passenger the lady at dmv told me i would hvae to bring a bus and tractor trailer to my skills tests. So i decided not to go for it at this time.

I'll go for hazmat when I get my license. I realize i am getting endorsements millis doesnt require, but if the day ever comes to having to look for a new job in the trucking industry i want to have as many doors open as possible.

if i were you and keep in mind i just graduated from allstate 2 weeks ago i would tak my time and to get them just make sure you have them when you take your test but do not pay for them just let them sit in the system at mva and they will be put on your license at no extra charge

Oh, 'hon'? Yup, you're a Baltimoron alright.

I'll join the chorus of your fanbois now.

Alllllrrrrrright! Giggity, giggity. (Oh, wait, that's your line)

Agreed with kiakid said: go ahead and take the tests for the hazmat asap. Don't get a new learner's (unless the place you are doing your learner's makes you haul hazmat during the process ) When you take the skills test, you will automatically get the hazmat tacked on.

Wish I had done this, but I was lazy and couldn't be bothered to get my birth certificate for the fingerprinting/background check, so now I'm gonna get to pay an extra $200 to get hazmat added on

Oh, yeah, get your background check started asap so that it will be done before your skills test. Maryland MVA info on Hazmat Call 1-800-638-8347 to schedule your fingerprinting. Turns out the numbers on the door at the MVA (in Waldorf) do not have you calling the appointment office.

the school i went to had a passenger option. they provided a 16 passenger shuttle bus to get my passenger endorsement. no extra charge.
although i dont ever plan on driving a tour bus. its nice to have a backup plan.
the company i work for requires doubles and hazmat. im glad i got both those endorsements. otherwise, it would have been one less option and a door closing on a job im glad i have.
