Otis S.'s Bio

I would like to go to truck driving school. I have my Class A CDL, but I do not have the air break endorsement. I have done hotshot work so I have some on the road experience. However, because I was paying for fuel, food, and hotel; I was not making any money. I would like to find a truck driving school that have trucks with automatic transmissions, because I have some knee problems so driving a truck with standard shifting would be difficult.

ELD

With what I have read and asked my friends. I thought that all trucking Companies had to go to it if they had over so many trucks. I am going to work for a company as a owner operator doing hotshot work I will be going all over but they told me that I could use the paper log is that right? I just don't want to get in trouble.

It looks like Swift has some good things and bad things the did get back to me quick I did it on line Saturday and they called me Monday morning but it looks like I should have ask some questions about this and that because they did not tell me much. I did one for Warner and sent them what they wanted me to and still have not heard anything from them how long dose it take them to get back in touch with you if anyone went to there school and works for them let me know what is the up and down

Help

I have talked to a truck driving school and I have talk to TDMV this is the last year that you can take it in an automatictransmission not have a restriction but I am going to go to a truck driving school they said it would be lot cheaper since I would have my CDL with all my endorsements but then I can learn to drive a standard and get the time I would need and then they could help me find a job

Help

I have just passed my written test for my air brake endorsement. I still need my pre trip inspection and the driving for that. I had found a place in Waco Tx that would help with that and had a truck with a automatictransmission in it. Then I was going to go to a truck driving schools to learn to drive the standard anyway know I can't get a hold of anyone in Waco dose anyone know a place in Texas that might have a place like that it was not a school you could rent the truck then thaey would ride with you and go over it with you take you on the route that the Department of public safety used and it was only 700.00. I just think it is easier to pass the driving in an automatictransmission because they watch you like a hawk in a standard. If anyone knows a place like that are knows anyone that has a truck I will pay them. I am in San Angelo
