Hi everyone, I'm back. I just read through the last page of comments. To make things clear, I do not have a CDL. I was originally going to go...
I'm 50. I don't feel old, though.
Isn't an APU necessary if you have a CPAP machine?
What are your thoughts about flatbed?
Thanks. I've heard this too. My brother-in-law even suggested it, because they are one of the largest trucking companies and will always have the...
1500/wk as a new driver? Trying to find the "fine print" is not exactly easy. I've been digging all through Swift's site (and the mobile is...
Naturally, you can't work 7 days a week 24 hours a day. I expect that I would be driving up to the legal, daily limits with 10 hours off clock for...
I'm investigating Swift as a possible starter company. Their website states "$1000 weekly guaranteed pay+" as of August 2021. Since Swift is a...
Does anyone know if you have to go through the medical examiner the recruiter sends you to, or can I just pay out of pocket for an examination...
I thought this was odd too. I see posts, articles, and videos talking about a driver shortage, but then I'm also seeing videos about the lack of...
I looked at that page, and I see what you are referring to: Non-CDL holders are not required to self-certify or submit a copy of their ME...
Thank you, so much! No one mentioned this to me. All I knew was that you need to take your certificate when testing for your permit.
Doesn't the examiner file the certificate with the FMCSA? I read that on another site. Unless you mean when I show the card to the DOT when going...
The reason for going back was to keep my options open with Roehl. I think their DOT examiner doubles as the company examiner, since they are...
Yeah, I've heard. Sadly, truckers aren't respected like they used to be. I've always had respect for truckers and what they do since I was a kid....
Thank you. I liked what Roehl initially offered, but after all the waiting I started finding more negative things about the company. Most agreed...
I don't think negatively about you, and I appreciate your help and wisdom. The second examiner was kind and professional unlike the first one...
What happens after the 45 days of Pending Determination? Does it fall off, or does the ME enter it in as Disqualified? Will that screw up the...
I agree, which is why I went elsewhere. So basically, I shouldn't even bother with the first one. I figured the first one would just be dropped...
I'm planning to see the second doctor today who passed me and ask him. The hydrocodone is no longer a current prescription, so I saw no point in...
