Hey guys, Im new here but i was looking to see if anyone could point me in the right direction. First off Im a SAP driver who is currently in stage 5 of the program, my counselor said the RTD drug test will be conducted by a company that hires me but havent been able to find one. So here it last 3/28/2022 i went to take a pre employment drug test and tested positive, now it was a one off mistake i made on a bachelor trip celebration and now im paying for it. Father of 1 with a another otw, Ive never been in any type of serious trouble, criminal record spotless, i do have a personal speeding ticket that happened 3+ years ago, Im a very hard worker and enjoy the hell out of driving trucks. Im just praying something comes up because im literally being treated as if i just served a 5 year bid and have a wrap sheet, and its just really tearing me down. Im a great dude just looking for a second chance to prove that what happened to me last year is not who i am. Someone take a chance and point me to the promise land. Thank you for reading.

How much driving experience do you have?

A member recently posted he's had interest from Roehl and Sweet express but he's in the RTD status. I'm unsure of how that equates to where you're at. A different member says Pam transport hired him with an SAP.

Hey Devin I'm the one Rob mentioned in the same boat, just different circumstances.

Question is do you have any tractor trailer experience or was this right as you got your CDL? With no experience it's goign to be tough to get on. Not impossible but tough.

I can link you up with some of the people who are working with me to get me back in a truck.

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.

Also go on indeed.com and type in "SAP" or "SAP driver" along those lines and something should pop up.

For your sake and those around you, please stay sober. Best of luck to you.
