    Just a normal dot physical. I did mine at concentra. Which is pretty standard. Overall they are easy to get on with. Their orientation is only 2 and a half days which is also nice. Best of luck. Keep us posted how it works out.. Also what fleet are you going onto?

    Passed the driving test and physical. Now waiting on a call from my recruiter on what my next step is. I'm not sure on a specific name of a division I will be working for. I did everything in the Lancaster Texas Office.

    I was in Lancaster today for etp which is a safety class they require you to take every 9 months.

    If you saw the dark blue KW T2000 back In the trailer yard the was me. Well grats on passing the test. Most likely if you didn't request a specific fleet yu will be on national. Which has its on benifits. If you ever have any questions feel free to Message me.​

    I went driving with a safety man. Can't remember his name but he is a big guy who had a gray shirt on today. He said he has been with Dart for 15 years if I remember right. We drove a gold International. Possible we will see each other soon.

    That was most likely Steve who is a safety coordinator he's a good guy.

    So what type of truck did you end up going with?

    I am going for a company driver position so I'm not sure if I will be able to pick a truck. I took the driving test Friday and then the company DOT physical late Friday. Now I am waiting for a call from DART. Do you know how long it takes to hear from DART after the physical?

    Drug test might take a day or 2.. Give it till tomorrow then call them the next day if you don't hear back from them. It shouldn't take long at all. Now granted I don't know as much about their company side.

    Good to see someone say nice things about the company for a change! Kudos computertrucker. Best advice I've learned here at Dart is communicate. Unlike other companies, these folks listen. Love my fleet manager, easy to work with, let's me do my thing, there if needed. Good luck and welcome to Dart!

    What do I need to wear to the DART Orientation? I didn't think to ask?

    I didn't know Dart has company drivers. I thought it was all O/O and fleasees.
