Hello,
Im a 28 year old former driver thats looking to go back into the industry. my cdl was downgraded to a class c because of no medical card and i think i will have to take all the tests and everything all over again because its been about 2 years since that happened unfortunatley... Looking for a company that runs through my area or even has a sub terminal in Amarillo Texas or surrounding area that would be a good fit. Thank you all for your time..

Thanks Chinatown. I’ll check it out

I looked into it, it looks like you have to have your CDL first
-
If your CDL was downgraded just bc of no medical card, does that mean if you get your medical they will up grade it again for you?
Maybe if you also take the written/ computer test again at the DMV for combination?Smoken0221 Thanks this. -

Here's an excerpt from the Texas website
CDL Downgraded for Medical Certification
If your CDL or CLP has been downgraded due to an expired Medical Examiner's Certificate, you must visit your local driver license office to be upgraded. A CDL that was downgraded to a driver license (DL) solely for failure to provide a valid medical variance or medical examiners certificate, may be upgraded back to your previous CDL status (including restrictions and endorsements) without taking CDL knowledge and skills exams provided the following conditions are met:
The record status must be Eligible (NOT suspended, revoked, disqualified, canceled)
The DL has not been expired for more than two years
The DL has not been renewed or re-issued (address change, name change, replacement) as a non-commercial driver license since the CDL was downgraded
You must meet all CDL requirements and provide valid medical variance or medical examiners certificate (if applicable) or certify to an excepted status
Applicable transaction fees will applySmoken0221 Thanks this.
