CDL requirements for foreigner

Hello

I'm a 23 year old truck driver from Denmark, who has decided to move to States, to spend the rest of my days, preferably driving trucks. This seems like an almost impossible mission, because I have to obtain a green card. But oh well, that's how it is I guess.

I already have a danish CDL, but of course this does not work in the States. I've heard that to start CDL training I will need to have had a car drivers license in US for 1 year. Can someone confirm this? I have of course had a danish drivers license for many years.

Hope you can help me,
Thanks,
Nicklas

 

Haha, yeah I understand. Some people just don't fit in to that society, and I guess I'm one of them.

 

Not gonna lie, I'm not even mad. Made me chuckle

 

Right, I can't find anything about either. I know you guys also have a lot of eastern European driver, who I highly doubt has spent 1 year in the States, before obtaining a CDL
