    Wait until after you get your CDL... it will be issued in Missouri. The hazmat test does not transfer between states, so you will have to retake it (no matter what) when you transfer your CDL back to Maine. BTW... take the tanker test too. Some of the hazmat loads we pull require that as well because of the containers they load into a reefer trailer.

    Just another driver.

    You'll do fine. Take everything seriously when you get there, and make sure you're not late anywhere... read this thread, that will help.
