Question About Knight Transportation
Topic 14376 | Page 1
"Knight Pet Policy - After completing training and logging 30,000 miles. Pets under 50 lbs, no aggressive breeds. $400 deposit required, $200 is refundable."
Sorry... I meant...
"Knight Rider Policy - Knight does allow riders but no specific policy information was given."
They just started recruiting from my area.I looked them up on here and there website but neither one said about the passenger policy.If there is any driver from Knight on here could you shine some light on this subject?
From that same review page, further up, it only says:
"Enhanced Rider program"
I would give them a call. This is the company I want to get started with, and I have talked to them. They are extremely patient answering all kinds of questions. Looking at your history, it looks like you already have your CDL - so definitely call them. I've talked to a few companies, and this one sounds like such a great company to start off with - and looks to be pretty darn good to stay with. I'll find out in a few months if they let me come on board...in the meantime, good luck to you.
Also, there's some dude on YouTube who works for Knight. His YT name is: Mr.Sinnizter DaTrucker The recruiter I talked to actually gave me that information. Ha. Again, best of luck, and if you do get on with them, come back and tell us how it is - some of us really want to work for them.
CDL:
Commercial Driver's License (CDL)
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
- Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
- Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.

Actually, I just found it but it might be a bit dated because the last page of their review says "no pets" which is no longer true, they do allow pets.
Anyway, rider policy from the review on page 5 of 5 on this site:
"What is the company's rider policy?
After 6 months of safe driving experience, drivers may have approved riders on the truck over the age of 10 years old. "
Thank you OldRookie and Serenity!
