Any advice for a newbie?

I'll start simply by saying you're speaking a foreign language to one American trucker. Your class one must be our class A. Then, I usually hear you have to be 23 over here for insurance purposes, but you say you already have experience.

Don't know what a rock truck is unless it's hauling scoria in a belly dump- could hardly imagine a need for a course for that. Maybe one of our Canadian friends or someone familiar could get you closer. If you're old enough I'm guessing you just find somebody to hire you on and train on the job?

 

Go thru a school now days... Know one will give u a job without verifiable driving experience.. Because thier insurance companies will not cover u.. If u can jump into any driving job thru a school then do it and strart getting some experience now

 

Here in SoCal you could goto Roberson Ready Mix, They will take you and train you.At 22 though.

 

Yeah, thats a #### good $12 per hour job.............
