    2008 was a bad year for me job wise. Was driving cargo van for 2 years and in 2008 the owner lost the van. I was unable to find a job for a few months and got another expediting job driving a sprinter. Well the van broke down and the owner took it. Well I tried being a frieight broker agent but not enough business. Well I am looking to go back into driving but having problems getting on with job history. I have 2 at fault accidents in the past 3 years. I am looking at training companies because I have no money to get cdl. Is there any companies that I should look into. Got declined by Prime, PAM and USA.

    Very few companies are taking on new students. Just keep applying to them all.

    With the two at faults in three years it will be really tough. Even if you can get trained. It doesn't mean you will be driving. Some guys get trained and then sit and wait as long as a month for a truck. i would suggest you look into other non-driving fields.

    Better stay a broker, sounds like the safest place for you, for all of us. 2 in 3 and your not a driver yet. Not good.
