I suggest calls.

Steve Barrett very stand up guy. Scott Fulkerson is heck of a safety professional. Would recommend highly.

I would really like to see the "real" split sleeper berth provision be brought back. Drivers themselves need to be able to determine when they need to rest - not the rules. We have many tired drivers driving rigs because the law and the companies require them to keep driving because they have...

Eminaga; Please place your ad in the "Classified" section here on Expediters Online. It's free and easy! You will also receive a much better response than in the forum itself. Thanks,

Cheri - great post as always. In most states it is actually illegal to operate when fatigued or drowsy, regardless if you are operating within the Federal HOS regulations. Ohio Revised Code 4511.79 makes is a minor misdemeanor for a someone to drive "a commercial motor vehicle" "while the...

Starvan; I suggest making calls to the companies having banners on the EO home page to find the company that suits your needs. You could also complete an EO application which can be submitted to all the companies. I assure you completing the application will result in many phone calls and...

Keep right, pass left. Hang up the cell phone and drive. Never cause another driver to speed up or slow down because of you. Set the cell phone down and quit texting. Yield means yield. Hang up the cell phone and drive. Never cross double yellow lines. Set the cell phone down and quit...

Very nice!

When I saw Lawrence put this ad for public view I realized the fun had just begun. I am laughing - great posts! I appreciate the good humor. There has to be one GREAT van driver that wants to drive a cool vehicle, not have to worry about maintenance or paying for fuel and insurance, who needs...

Requiring all drivers to possess a CDL also assists the driver and the carrier in a court of law against the plaintiff, by providing additional proof that the driver was a qualified driver. Lessens exposure to potential liability.

Mike P, Steve B, John E - you just had to drag me in to moderate this out of control post started by Pettrey and fueled by Elliott and Barrett. Steve had to call me out to moderate cause he wanted to put a bad word in the forums. Why couldn't Steve and Mike just be "LURKERS" like they always...

A Blair Enterprise operated by Tom Robertson - knowledgeable, stand-up, well respected gentleman. Feel comfortable with Tom.

The only answer I could give is to apply to as many companies as possible. The only way to find the answer is to apply. Thanks,

Happy Birthday Carol! A couple days late and a few dollars short. Hope you had a wonderful day.

Thanks for all of the kind words. Lawyers will tell you, and have told me in the past, that I am a poor judge of character. Yes I have hung around with some undesirables. :) I'm really trying hard to be a better person. NoFear - my opinion is biased because of my affiliation with Premium...

Tweedles; All you can do is apply to the companies you are interested in. The worst they can say is no, and you move on to the next. Be positive and confident - you will find a position. Once you have a little experience you will be able to write your own ticket for your driving career. Thanks,

John; Research the expedite companies and narrow your search. Contact each of the companies on your refined list of carriers and ask them about the experience. I personally would like to think that if you could drive a tractor trailer in 2003 that you might perhaps be able to handle a...

Walsh; Get many of your questions answered by spending 4 hours at an Expediters University Workshop put on by ExpeditersOnLine.com and On-Time Media. You can find links to these events on the homepage here of EO. The next event is in Knoxville, TN - see the link below. Expedited Trucking...

I win - best game on the forums yet!

EO Forum Facts: The EO forums are the most entertaining form of reading. Period. None better. No wonder drivers read these forums and do not read the green safety regulations handbook. Those books are for the geeks. I'm always amused when reading the forums. You know you are also. You...
