Any Ideas Of Company Lists To Start The First Year?
Topic 18484 | Page 1
Welcome MooKeuk. You have come to the right place. Trucking Truth has everything at your fingertips to help you with getting into the business and understanding what it takes to succeed.
I suggest you review the TT starter kit:
- Truck Driver's Career Guide
- Brett's Book: The Raw Truth About Trucking (free online version)
- High Road Training Program
The first two links will help you establish a realistic set of expectations and goals. One of the biggest issues a new driver faces is a totally false and unrealistic set of expectations. Approach this with an open mind, a positive attitude and the desire to learn. Learning is the whole idea with the third link; High Road Training. This is a computer based training curriculum designed to assist and enable your success in passing the CDL permit exams and understanding basic elements of trucking.
Good luck to you and let us know how else we can help you.
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.

Dispatcher:
Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.
