Im a new driver and my first solo run was on I-70 east going through Utah and Colorado. Bad route to send a rookie. I think all the super trucker's hate me but I don't give a fa. I maintained 40-45 mph on all declines and curves. To all my newbys. The jake brake is your friend. Don't let the driver behind you drive for you let them go around if they want.I've driven semis, articulating trucks, and 100 ton rigid frame mining trucks... I never thought this was a particularly difficult thing to do. But then I have to remember my ol lady can barely back her nissan sentry out of a parking lot. Sometimes people really do just need the extra training and when you panic you can easily miss an opportunity that would have seemed obvious to someone else.
