New Lease Driver
Topic 11231 | Page 1
Dave, how much OTR driving have you done? Are you with a company now? If not, how did you get your truck?
There's nothing wrong with living in your truck, in fact, Trucking Truth's founder/owner did that.
OTR:
Over The Road
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
