What can I do ?

Turn your tagging notifications back on so we can harass you!

 

Just bend over grab your cheeks pull wide. And smile. Lol

 

Probably get a new physical, then take it to the DMV and get your CDL reinstated.
Ask the DMV about that.

 

Carter Express has their own cdl school in Anderson, Indiana.
They haul auto parts mostly, out of Laredo, Texas. Maybe some of their drivers are on this forum and can fill in the blanks.
According to drive4carterexpress.com
When you attend training at one of our certified partner schools, Carter Express can sponsor you which includes covering 100% of the tuition costs or offering a tuition reimbursement program. Once you have secured your CDL, Carter Express has a six-week paid training program to prepare you for a successful new career.

I was thinking the same thing yesterday. While I have never heard of anybody doing this, I also have never heard of anybody being told to pound sand. There might be a time limit after doing this to go undo it. You DON"T have to have a physical if you self certify intrastate. It is worth the effort to at least try.

 

Have you reached peak recovery after surgery? If not, keep at it, and renew your license when you can pass the physical.

Otherwise, I do not think yard trucks require CDL as long as you don't go out on public roads for fuel, or to spot trailers in different lots. I say this because there is a one-armed yard driver at Atlanta Bonded in Kennesaw, GA, who has been there for years.

EDIT: Everything I just said is suspect, if there is no lifting requirement for a CDL. I will leave it up only because I don't know if it might actually be true in some states. Do your homework for your state.

 

NO comp?

 

you NEED a CDL to rent a CDL truck.

further, the possibility looms that he may not be easily hired with out some sort of schooling certificate.

do not forget, trucking companies have to answer to thier insurance companies.

 

Not necessarily, depends on the state. Florida downgraded my CDL because I didn't provide a current med certificate (I was living overseas and didn't get the mailed notifications/warnings).

All I needed to do to reinstate my CDL was get a new med card...and pay the renewal fee.

Check with the state DMV before you sign up for school or whatever.
