    I saw two guys at a truck stop few days ago, both missing right arms. Not sure if they were drivers but think they were.
    Get your CDL and start driving!

    I assume the op has a car so you'll be able to drive and handle a larger vehicle without any problems.

    Looks like Roehl will even pay you $500/week while you attend their CDL school. Wish I had known that before I signed up with Conway. I'm going over the 4 weeks I was quoted, and running out of money fast.
