    Hi guys!
    I just got my CDL 2 months ago. My LLC exists 2 years.
    I got my MC and Dot numbers, want to start my own business in trucking, interstate.
    So, my question is which insurance company should I apply as a new driver? I know it could be expensive but I agree with that.
    I am California resident.
    Any tips and advices are strong appreciated.
     
    austinmike Thanks this.

    How'd you get your MC granted without BMC-91(x) on file??
    Or are you still in the application/approval process?
