Hello,
I am very interested in getting into trucking as my current job is going nowhere. I have read all over about the physical requirements for trucking and wondering if anyone has had experience with attempting to get a CDL with sight in only one eye. I have excellent vision in other eye and hold a current regular license. I have seen from the fmcsa site that there is a vision waiver available, but it seems very complicated and also limits you to intrastate driving for the first three years before you can apply to be interstate. Would like to know if anyone has had experience with this waiver, and any companies that would do intrastate only. I am in Pennsylvania. Thanks!
