Cdl Tanker Endorsement

[blackangus86]

Can anyone give me some tips on the tanker endorsement test in pa? Going to go for the test on saturday, already have my cdl A

the tank endorsement i thought was the easiest part of my CDL...just read the book, its really all common sense...stuff like smooth bore tanks, baffled tanks, gently accelerate halfway through a turn...

theres not too many pages in that section of the manual so if you read it through then you'll be fine

somehow i knew you would chime in. Thanks alot. Are they drilling many gas wells down in your area? I have a decent job now with a utility company but thought about going to drive water truck this summer

none that i know of in the South East PA area....here in Central PA I personally haven't seen any going in, but have read about quite a few in the Lancaster Farming magazine...mostly up in the North East

where abouts in PA you from?

I read the book while waiting in line and passed it. I think its only like 2 pages in the book.. Just look at the questions at the end of the section.

oh ok...they putting in quite a few wells up there?

The only thing I would add, and this is not directly related to the test, is that if you are an independant......call your insurance agent and see if the rate increases with a tanker endorsement. If the company is footing the bill, carry on.........

Right now I am in the middle of three wells sites. There is 5 going in around a mile of me. Pj Dick is working about 20 minutes south of me at the Turkey Ranch.
