Having a hard time getting started

Depends on the reason for the suspension. If its DUI, you're going to have a tough time finding a driving job.

 

Then why was your license suspended?

 

If you can't find someone that will hire you right out of school right now, I'd wait until everyone will hire you right out of school before going to school. You can go to school right now but it might be a waste of time.

 

You don't state why it was suspended. However most companies probably won't hire you. Do you still have points related to the suspension on your record. You can go to school anywhere you want but your license is issued by the state you live in. Going to another state will not get rid of your suspension in the past. Wait another year or so.

 

Get your license, but good luck finding work. You may have to apply and work for some independent small company local to where you live. It will depend 100% on what the carriers insurance says.

 

Do you live in Indiana? That's where you need to get your license, where ever your home is.

IN, CA, UT, AZ, PA are the 5 toughest states. They are reciprocal with each other, you get your CDL in one of those states, you simply walk into any other state, and get your license.
If you go to Illinois, and get it, Indian is going to make you do the entire 3 part written, and all the driving, pre trip, and obstacle / backing to get your CDL.
That's why all the mega's for the most part have their schools in those 5 states.

 

When did they start that?
