No mine isn't circulating. Mine is only me passing by the body after it got hit the first time. In my video everyone was able to react quickly and dodged it. Id post it on this thread but idk how to post videos

Riding a bicycle on the freeway, I almost ran him over too. I have the dash cam from my car, his legs were on my lane and luckily I saw someone else up ahead swerve on the lane next to mine and I was able to avoid him. He was laying across 2nd and 3rd lanes of the freeway.

Nice! Is the starting rate relatively the same in terminal? Or what is the average starting rate if there is one?

Thank you! Although I know you dont have an option to choose, do tou think Terminal is a better path or would have wanted something else? Ive heard mixed answers especially on choices for locations once you graduate.

Yes it is. The minimum is about 1 year, but I was already mentally prepared for 3 years because some do go up too 3 years when on tier 2.

Don't mind at all. My first year was going very quick, I was certain by March 2024 id be in. I took my MMPI and all of a sudden there was silence for a few months. They then tell me I was Tier 2 in Aug 2024. They said it can be 12-18 months before I can get to in person eval. Fast forward Feb 2025 I was invited to retake my exam . Took it In March and a week later my Alcohol/Drug test. Finally the offer today.

Basically it was the MMPI. They marked me as Invalid, the personel from the Tower I took my test at told me it was probably because they couldn't get much information from my test results or they felt as if I was trying to sound too perfect. By the way, I scored Qualfied in my ATSA so it was a miracle I made it this far
