    I graduated from driving school and drove for about four months straight in 2013 and had to leave the road. I intended to get right back driving however that did not happen due to an injury. Now it has been about a year since I have been behind the wheel. I Drove 48 states, mostly cross country during those 4 month ( if that matters) and am eager to get back out now that I am healthy. I hope to get some feedback on if I may need a refresher , also I have no problem going out with a trainer and I know that I am basically starting over so anything helps. Thank you.

    Try these; they hire drivers with a long gap in driving:

    Pride Transport
    Super Service
    Schneider
    Western Express

    Maybe Knight.

    Pride seems to be right down the street from you

    Chinatown, I'd love to see the exhaustive list that you must keep of who hires for what where. You always have a list for each of these people who ask, and I'm always impressed.
