Got stripped of my CDL!

I just signed on with a new carrier. Even though my medical was still valid, because I couldn't find the long form, i had to get a new one. I verified that nobody would be sending it to the DMV, and I would have to do it. Never-the-less, somebody sent it to the IL dmv, and I had a letter from the secretary of state waiting for me at home. Apparently the fax copy wasn't legible. There is a commercial only office about 10 miles from my house. Self-certification only takes 15 to 20 minutes. They put it in the system as you watch.

 

Oh crap forgot about the holiday, that's why I am doing all of this work cooking.

 

I had mine suspenededm too for not taking it into the California DMV,I was working out of state and got the physical in Nevada then faxed it to the company to take to the Dmv and they never did,I go through a scale in the Bay area and get pulled in to find out my license was suspeneded because it wasn't taken in,I showed them the paper copy but they still would not take it,

 

Thats the thing that gets the driver's. The company is under no obligation to take care of the driver's CDL.

 

I don't understand the drivers who rely on others to take care of their stuff.

 

Is that's why they open that mega one in funtucky ? Only went to San Berdo once.

 

Yeah. Nice looking building compared to that trailer looking one in berdoo

 

Loved your response!

 

We have self certify in Washington state, too.. My company sends everything in and gives me a fax receipt; then, when I get home; I go to the DMV to physically show them the new med cert, and they just verified that they had it in the system.. Our Cdl's are good for 6 years each renewal; so I just wanted to doublecheck when I got a new medical..

 

How do you get a receipt when you fax it in to dot? How do you know the dot didn't lose the fax?

When you go in person the dot gives you a receipt that they have updated your record.
