Yep I might just go and get my passport when I take home time in August.
What scares me about the process is you have to send in your birth certificate also. They may not seem like a big deal to most but I was born on an American Military base in Bermenhaven Germany or what used to be called West Germany.
If the state department looses my birth certificate I would have to go through hell to get another one if I could even get another one. It's a pretty scary thought.
I know what you mean. It took me forever to get an original copy of my birth certificate.

One fine morning on I-55 in Missouri
Just curious (i'm not a driver yet), would this be the end of someone's career in trucking?
No it wouldn't. There probably wouldn't be any major companies or highly reputable companies that would hire you but there would be a ton of smaller, more "outlaw" type companies that would. There are a lot of small companies around the country that still do things the old school way. They'll hand you paper logbooks, tell you to stay out of trouble, and load you up with all the miles any human can handle.
Once you got a few years of safe driving behind you again you'd be able to work your way back into the companies with high hiring standards. Then again, once you did some old school driving you might not want to go back.
It won't be long before everyone is required to run electronic logs though. The outlaw ways are slowly disappearing.
Is the old way good or bad for trucking?

A month of trucking with Daniel B.
Hey folks! You're looking at yet another legendary thread by me. In this thread, I will document my days for an entire month for everyone to read. You will learn a ton, and also gain a good understanding of how life really is like on the road. This is going to be the same concept as my Adventures of Daniel B. thread. I will make it as detailed as I can possibly make it and answer any questions you folks have. Please understand though that I'm working 10+ hour days and sometimes I simply cannot respond immediately. But rest assured, I'll get to you when I can.
Remember, attitude is #1. Lets see how I do in December!
Hello Mr. Daniel B., Just wanted to let you know that i am thankful for all the feedback that you and everyone at TT provides. It really inspires me to be a true professional out there on the road. I am counting down the days until i start my training. Thanks again. Jesse Carter
