In Oklahoma if your in a vehicle drunk sleeping no big deal…BUT if your in a vehicle drunk sleeping with the keys in the ignition it’s a DUI Misdemeanor charge. You don’t even have to have the vehicle running just them keys in the ignition. Ohio not sure. Hope all works out….

Thank you BK and George, I appreciate your honesty, and it gives me a heads up on what to expect, as a journeyman plumber I know what you saying about learning a new trade such as trucking. We got young guys coming into the plumbing trade , we train them for year or two then we let them into a truck. Well once there in truck they start thinking they should get 30.00 bucks an hour well hell there still learning… it takes time to get to the big bucks…. So I understand I’ve got to get through the learning stage of driving them monster trucks… I’m so excited to learn but nervous… I wrote another post on this subject about Pam.. the other trucks basically stated the same thing. I’ll get more questions answered from my recruiter but now with the information I have from all you truckers out there. GOD BLESS THE TRUCKERS…I will talk to some other company’s as well before I decide who to go with.. BK I hope your not still stuck in Oklahoma hope you got it figured out on your cdl… thanks again guys….

Got few questions. #1Driver solutions do they actually work for Pam or the trucking school? #2 I read trucking truth on Pam and it states first 1 to 2 years you’ll make 30,000.00 to 40,000.00 a year. But as I scroll down Pam says I could make up to 60,000.00 first year. So is 30,000 to 40,000 really what a new driver could expect? This is Trucking Truth…. #3 Does Pam transport have there own trucking school? Where as driver solutions sends you to a different school? Then Pam reaches out to hire ? #4 Going thru driver solutions I will have to pay I believe 45 to 50.00 a week once I’m hired thru Pam. But on trucking truth they say no payment just work for them for one year. Where I’m confused is does Pam transport have there very own school where as driver solutions is like a 3 rd party and this is why I have to pay around 2000.00 dollars back the the rest will be forgiven… Pam says says school and training is free … There’s so much different information out there.

I’m new to this site and I’ve followed you as others to learn…..(more about truck driving )have a great retirement…. I’m 54 and I’ve got another 20 to 25 years to go… Take Care…

I live in sapulpa near Tulsa go there everyday and yes they have increased the speed few months back, the highway patrol had a report on the news here that it’s common nowadays to have drivers doing 75mph plus.. creek turnpike always speeding. Patrol always pulling them over on creek turnpike… but Denver 90 to 100 mph is crazy if they wreck I’m sure you will not survive buckled or not buckled…

Thank you PACKRAT and cool name…. Lol Your right (UP TO). Keywords … I understand also it’s performance based plus I’m learning a lot.. G-Town how are ya sir.. yes on my bp I’m doing much better I’ve gotten it down to acceptable levels. Below the 140/90 so I’m ver happy been exercising more. Feeling better next I had my stomach hernia fixed had surgery 11-2-22 when he got in there he found 3 rips… so now my hernia is fixed with mesh they actually fixed it with a robot. So I was down for 2 weeks … so im getting my ducks in a row… I Want to be a Truck Driver…. I was talking to driver solutions feeling out paper work… well this morning at 8 am I get a call from PAM she told me that driver solutions is a 3rd party tats why there trading is 5995 and after 1 year they will for give 4000. Dollars and I pay only 2000. So 45.00 dollars a week would come out of my paycheck. Pam recruiter stated PAM would not charge me as long as I complete 1 year. Plus I would go solo.

Hello, I have couple questions to ask… been talking to a recruiter with Pam Transportation with (Driver solutions). Does anyone know anything about driver solutions trucking schools? Would it be better for me to go thru a company sponsored cdl program? I understand that driver solutions and Pam trucking work together. Will I get good training thru truck driver school.? Does pam transport run more teams. I would like to run solo when I get done with training . I see they talk more about team pay ect. She stated I could make up to $75,000 my first year with Pam transport. And up to $80,000 for driving teams. I’ve looked at other web sites with Pam and it states as a solo driver make up to 50,000 and 60,000 as a team driver. Also saw that I would have to drive team for 6 months before switching over to solo. Recruiter would like to start running my back ground check dot physical and drug test, she states I could start school 12/27/22.. I’m excited that my trucking career could be starting very soon. Any comments by you Pam truck drivers and other experienced truck drivers… there web site states $ .30cents a mile, when I see say wil-trans trucking it’s $.40 cents a mile. Ty for an input… Freebird…..

Great example of why a C.B. can be the best safety tool a driver has. Thanks for sharing this.
