Almost all drivers start out at TMC with two weeks of orientation and hands-on securement training. (Highly experienced drivers may get to skip a step or two) This is followed by six weeks of driving with a certified trainer. If you and your trainer and the safety department be satisfied with your progress you MAY be allowed to team drive during the last week.

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
