Synopsis

Far more than CDL prep, since 1988 this has been the go-to book on tractor-trailer operations, equipping commercial drivers with the knowledge and confidence for a safe, successful career. Thorough, easy and enjoyable to read, this 5-star resource is acclaimed by entry-level and veteran drivers alike as well as instructors and industry specialists such as accident reconstruction experts and attorneys. With up-to-date information on hours of service, hazardous materials, cargo securement, and onboard technology, plus descriptions of systems and components, regulated activities, driving skills, safe driving and economy driving, Bumper to Bumper includes end-of-chapter quizzes, hundreds of illustrations and a detailed index.

Review:

"The fact that BUMPER TO BUMPER follows through on its stated goal strikes us as the best and most important recommendation we can make to anyone working or even interested in trucking...Since it covers the essentials of everything a truck driver needs to know about the industry...it gets our top rating as an industry "classic."...Just as important as the information conveyed in it is the book's overall attitude. Addressed to drivers, the book never talks down to them or demeans the industry. Rather it treats the subject of the trucking business and big rig driving with the overall regard and respect that those activities deserve," said Don Long, Editor, Inside Trucking, about BUMPER TO BUMPER, The Complete Guide to Tractor-Trailer Operations' second edition. --Publisher Comments
