    I'm new to trucking and made a mistake! I can admit the mistake but I don't want to give up before I get started.
    The basics: my first company( I made the mistake of going with partner and it got toxic) so I left but I left the same month I got into an accident.
    I paid for my MVR,PCP and a copy of my DAC but it dosnt show.
    No tickets were issued but the other truck was towed away.
    I hit the truck with my trailer( it was parked illegally on a curb)
    It only appears when you verify my employment with the first company.
    I only have a month of experience but can't find anyone to give me more experience to keep trucking.
    I have all my endorsements and I am willing to retrain.

    North Carolina. I tried western express, they said No.
    Swift/knight/U.S express said 6 months of clean driving.
    I can't get May trucking to answer the phone.
    Schneider always say they will call back but don't.

    I did and I've applied to most everyone I can see but I know a lot of companies require experience.
    I also applied to a lot of companies I saw on some of the threads here.

    DO NOT LEASE A TRUCK. The people that will lease to someone with no experience and an accident are not going to be your friends. They are going to let you pay for their truck and keep the money they owe to you for driving.

    Maybe their are driving jobs back home.
