    The DAC is a way of verifying employment but also a way to see if you’re insurable. Apparently the insurance companies now have to see DAC as well. At least that’s how’s USA Truck & Western Express explained it to me. I’m not insurable at either.

    Brother used to drive for Mcguire Transportation out of Temple years ago. He used to do mostly out and back runs, but made pretty good money while he was working for them.

    Your reportable accident is probably the fatal blow because of the seriousness of it. Then that DAC report is just the icing on the cake..

    I will private message you in a day or two and send you a contact for a job. It’s based out of Detroit and you’ll run all points Texas every week..Temple Texas is one area that they deliver so you possibly could see your house every week or so.
    Was actually the best job I ever had.

    I got to talk to my buddy who still works there and find out if they are hiring now. Last time he said that they were slow.. That and I got to get some sleep now..just finished a 10 hour 59 minute drive :)

    I appreciate you. I agree it’s not looking good. Which is why I’m unfortunately looking at not driving for a few years I guess. But if anything is available and willing to take a chance on me I’ll do it. I don’t care where it’s at and if I’m away from home for a while so be it. Gotta pay my dues.

    They look pretty small so maybe they don’t check DAC. I shot them an app.
     
    TexasRiverRat Thanks this.

    I have no idea, Brother got hired with a new CDL, but that was ten years ago.

    Hang in there; put enough apps out there and you'll be hired.
