Do you need any driving experience for a package delivery truck?

[Dhs123]

I'm wondering how well people do on the road test to be a ups package delivery driver with 0 experience driving these trucks(the automatics not standards). Is the test easy to pass with the only experience being the time they give you to drive before the road test?

You have to pass using a stick shift

The road test will not be on a stick shift.

You only need to know how to drive standard. Can you start on a hill without rolling back?
Good luck!

Have you never driven a truck before?

Yup they apparently no longer make the standards, all the trucks are automatics. So I'm assuming no reason to test someone in a standard...

They no longer make them but we have plenty left.

Nothing like the ups trucks.

I guess this answers my question. Thanks!

I wouldn't assume. You still need to know how to drive one.

At my hub they test with stick shift

He may not be taking the test at the center. He may be taking it at intergrad

If they don't test someone at the center before spending the money involved to send them to class they should be terminated. Waste of money
