    I hope nobody even looks at you. 3 DUI plus a felony theft. McDs wont even let you flip burgers. You have no buisniess behind the wheeel of anything much less a rig.

    I would try C.R. England.
    They "self-insure". And can cover your costs.

    NOt hard getting loads, these borkers like new MC#'s. they can screw them easier. When I started I was supposed to lease to this guy and he said I didn't have enough OTR experience. So I had a truck trailer and no where to go. went home bought my authority and found insurance and never looked back that was going on six years ago. If I was looking to hire a driver I would look at the guys MVR and if he could be insured and at what cost. If that was ok I go with what my thoughts were from a interview. I could care less if he killed someone or had a dui as long as he wasn;t looking to killl me or mine and wasn't drinking now. I was told this once before there are two kinds of people in this world the Caught and uncaught the original poster has joined the caught ones.

    I live in chicago, land of the truck driver, where driving jobs grow on trees. I can't even get a job with a 3+ year old DUI under my belt. Everyone wants 5 to 7 years. Can't wait that long I guess I need to start doing something else. I can't even work at Jiffy Lube cause you need a clean record because you will be pulling customers cars in and out of the shop. Things you never thought are now out of reach because of insurance companies. Go learn how to weld or something. That's what the rest of us have to do.

    This forum is flooded with new drivers that acts like they know everything. It's like listening to channel 19 sometimes. Some companies require no duis in the last 5 years and will hire with a felony if it's not involving theft our armed robbery. The minimum wage companies seem to be more difficult to get hired with than a decent company when it comes to these things

    I sent you a PM there are sometimes ways to work around "problem" like this and get a cdl and drive..
    You posted this in the wrong place did you really expect any helpful advice from those who act like a lynch mod? If king ray has his way a lot of these guys posting here that you don't deserve a chance, themselves may in fact wind up physically disqaulified from driving now that would be poetic justice.
