Hello all,

I'm 51 years old and in good health. I'm thinking of entering the trucking profession. I spent 31 years in the high-tech industry and I'm seriously giving the trucking profession a look as my 2nd career. What are the chances of a trucking company hiring someone that is 51 years old? I don't have any past criminal or driving infractions etc. I would be looking to obtain training from a trucking company or through a school. So given the info above, what are my chances of being hired?

Thanks,
Dezzert_Rider (John)

Same as any one elses. Unless you are starting out at 81 age is besides the point. Besides companies prefer mature drivers.
