So, would it be smart to buy a tractor and start a business with ZERO experience in that industry? Be honest with yourself…does it sound smart to you?
“But Six, it’s just driving…you sit behind the wheel and hold a steering wheel, right?”
That would be like saying owning a McDonald’s is as easy as putting the meat under a heat lamp.88 Alpha, hope not dumb twucker, tscottme and 2 others Thank this. -
I got 4 months till I turn 21 and then 1 more till accident is a year old just feels like it’s forever thanks for the adviceThrasher28 Thanks this.

Probably best to wait a couple years. Rear ending another vehicle is a serious accident in CDL land. Personally I’m not buying the brake check excuse, being a 4 car pileup just shows everyone but the lead vehicle was following too close riding each others rear.
You’re going to need the ability to read traffic and the patience to understand when it’s best to back off regardless of who has the right of way. I really can’t see anyone giving you a shot at this point..
Good lucktscottme, OldMainiac and TripleSix Thank this. -

My insurance’s adjuster got switched like 10 times when I called him he didn’t even know they where all related or looked at there driving history’s I was like they been in a lot of accidents before this then he looked it up when I told him that he looked it up and said they been in 2 and he said the claims are already being paid and I should of called him before cause he wouldn’t of paid them that fast but I told the adjuster before him that it’s like they don’t really care about u cause there so busy and then I told them that the cop didn’t take my statement and didn’t give them tickets for no insurance or no license it doesn't take a genius to realize there a bias copTripleSix said: ↑Apparently, everyone else stopped in time but OP.

I’ve tried to contact lawyers they don’t really care they just want to take on injury claims how did this become a discussion about my accident when it’s about what I should do in trucking I get how most people wouldn’t believe it but it didn’t happen to u so u wouldn’t understand it’s like people never heard of insurance fraud truckers deal with it the mostTripleSix said: ↑Apparently, everyone else stopped in time but OP.
