That's great Gunner! Yeah, that Logbook section is really tough but it's well worth it.
A written or electronic record of a driver's duty status which must be maintained at all times. The driver records the amount of time spent driving, on-duty not driving, in the sleeper berth, or off duty. The enforcement of the Hours Of Service Rules (HOS) are based upon the entries put in a driver's logbook.
Congrats Gunner!!! Question,,,, do I have to have my cdl first before starting the process of getting my hazmat endorsement?
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
Explosive, flammable, poisonous or otherwise potentially dangerous cargo. Large amounts of especially hazardous cargo are required to be placarded under HAZMAT regulations
Congrats Gunner!!! Question,,,, do I have to have my cdl first before starting the process of getting my hazmat endorsement?
You do actually have to have the cdl before you can get a hazmat........at least in fl. I would recommend you go to your local dmv in marietta and ask them what the steps are. In fl, dmv does everything for you. They take your prints and send out the app for your background check. Cost was about 120.00 total. You can also go to tsa's website and download the app.

Got my DL with my hazmat endorcement included on it today. I was expecting a wait time of a few months and it came back in 2 weeks. Tallahassee just sent it right to my house. Dont even have to go back to dmv. Should make applying for jobs ALOT easier. The online training on here was key so thank you for that. On the log book section now which has been challenging, to say the least. Alot of strange rules in there
