    If you are deciding to become a driver, be careful of PAM TRANSPORTATION!!!!! I live in Alabama did a DOT physical, and everything else I needed to do before PAM SENT ME TO INDIANAPOLIS, IN for classes at C1 TRUCK DRIVER TRAINING (THE SCHOOL WAS AWESOME BTW) But bout 1 1/2 weeks into my classes PAM TRANSPORTATION let me go cause of high blood pressure which they knew I had from the start and said my BMI was to high, well I finished classes, and since they let me go b4 I passed my state test... I WAS STUCK IN INDIANAPOLIS... I was told by Pam transportation once I passed I would receive a $100 to get me home.... That did not happen!!! So if you are going threw Pam transportation and bout to start classes be careful they will screw you over

    Well the day Pam transportation let me go I was picked up by swift they paid for the classes, but I didn't receive any money to get home on, they said they would have paid for a bus ticket but I drove up there and wasn't bout to leave my car.

    Glad it worked out for you in the end. Swift isn't a terrible company to start with, at least you have options there

    PAM medical clearance people are notorious. A while back they got their hand slapped in court for one of their medical policies violating HIPPA
