    27 mph over the speed limit is a serious problem! You already know that though.

    If Western Express won't hire you, then you'll probably find something on Craigslist 1099 driving jobs.

    Nobody has said Western Express? I thought they love 2nd and 3rd chances

    Western Express
    Submit the application from the website, then tomorrow call and ask about your driving job application.

    We offer fleet-maintained trucks with UTA trade terms and volume discounts, perfect for expanding your inventory or starting your own logistics business.

    27 mph over the speed limit?

    MOST impressive.....!!! :p

    Have you maybe considered a career on the NASCAR circuit?

    Clearly -- you'd be a decent fit there....

    Ouch, fresh wreckless. You're wasting your time on class A. These guys are going to be too nice to tell you you're SOL. Western Express maybe, but you'd be stuck there for a long time and that company is just not good.

    Start working the placement coordinator (person that helps you find a job with the training) at the school....... I hope they have one.

    You know you might try Butler Transport out of Kansas City, Ks. They may hire you. It's worth a call. All The Best!

    I won't even waste optimism here. You have no chance. Try again 3 years from now, also, practice paying attention to speed limit signs. If you're in a truck, a lot of these companies will fire you for that.
