I'm not saying that the U.N. hasn't "proposed" such a standard, but I'm not aware of it. Could you give some background on this?
I'm ALSO not aware that U.S. companies are REQUIRED to follow any such standards. Could you provide PROOF that they are?
Currently, as I understand it, a person can study the manual and take the test to get a CDL. Am I missing something?
And, I REALLY would like to see Splitshifter, Roadranger, MadFatboy and a few others that (apparently) were self-taught or learned by means OTHER than a CDL school, and have been driving for years, take you out to the woodshed!! :lol:
But, you're RIGHT about ONE thing! If you wanted to start a serious discussion about the state and caliber of training in the U.S., Canada or anywhere ELSE.... you SURE went about it in the WRONG way!!
