New CDL Class A Permit Driver

Just got off work so Im delayed to respond.
I know a few people driving trucks who have served time making a great career in the business.
As for my licences...never had one before.
Strange but true...
I know there are lots of people who drive most their lives without licences.
Some things only become barriers if you allow yourself to believe that they are.

 

Yeah...its unusual but it happens. I agree.

 

I understand your point. Big difference between traditional trucking and contemporary trucking as far as policy and laws.
Not so much eed tape back in old days.
Hell, BJ & The Bear...Smokey & The Bandit made it look fun and thrilling to me watching them shows on TV as a kid.
The thing about all these new rules, laws and regulations is that its becoming to high of a bar for those who are intrested in becoming drivers today. But, the demand for drivers is greater today. Especially great quality drivers.
Mega companies are finding it very difficult to keep up their numbers to meet this demand. So many BS technicalities to disqulify people...and because of this the pickins are becoming slimmer and slimmer year by year.
Alot of the policies, laws and regulations are exaggerated beyond the scope of what they were intended for.
Its obsolete many of them.
Im pretty sure their are reasonable reasons to have some in place.
