Does traffic congestion stress you out? How do you handle it?

Your reply to this question should always be a no. As a truck driver, it's your responsibility to remain calm and collected behind the wheel. Interviewers want to hear that you can handle traffic congestion with ease. Be sure to mention what cities you have driven in and what type of traffic to which you are accustomed.

Note: If you are a newer driver, it is okay to be a little uneasy about driving in bigger cities with a lot of traffic. The interviewer will likely provide you with a few extra ride alongs to ensure you are comfortable before being sent out alone. Rather than stating your are uneasy or stressed out in these situations, you can let them know you are less experienced in this area and would appreciate additional training.

"Since I am a new driver, with less than one year of experience, I do not have a lot of exposure to driving in larger cities with heavy traffic. So long as I have a few ride-along opportunities first, I am confident that I could handle a task like that with ease."
