Just remove the drug testing. You’ll have more drivers than you could shake a Thai stick at.

Okay, If YOU owned a trucking company would you want to put a person behind the wheel of a $200K tractor, pulling a $90K trailer with some ones product on/in that trailer that could not pass a drug test?

Do you have any idea what the liability insurance alone costs for a trucking company?

Also remove felony convictions, accidents, and references.

Yeah there’s a disconnect between legal grass states and CDL requirements for sure.

I quit when they introduced the stupid "moving vehicle" and 10 hour rest period.

That is: any travel in a Moving vehicle, skateboards, bicycle, scooter, motor cycle, car, taxi, Ube, coach, Greyhound bus, train, airplane is to be regarded as "on duty" and requires a mandatory 10 hour rest period.

I used to ferry trucks from LA to Oakland dealer (who was open 24/7)

Pick up Truck in LA in morning, drive to Oakland and deliver vehicle, Taxi to Oakland Greyhound Terminal and sleep all the way back to LA to pick another vehicle up.
