Former CDL A driver needing advice
Greetings!
My name is Gary. I drove and delivered for McLane for a few years in California. I haven't driven in 20 years, and voluntarily gave up my CDL when I learned it had expired and needed a Uhaul that day. The only way to do that according to the DMV was to drop to a class-c. So, I did and got my Uhaul.
Now, I'm thinking about returning to trucking but not sure where to start. Can't really afford classes again. I had all endorsements but passenger. Do I just do the behind the wheel retest and paper tests again? And who would I go to for a truck to do the BtW test?
BTW, I'm currently in Fort Worth, TX.
Cheers! Gary

Thanks, BK.
That's unfortunate. It baffles me that I had to drop the CDL portion just to retain the class - C. I mean, if I paid for the class A renewal, but had yet to take the class A tests, wouldn't the class A have simply reverted to a de facto class C until I took the tests? If I got pulled over driving a rig with the class A invalid, I would be in trouble, I should still be able to use it as a class C.
That made no sense to me.
