I Need Some Advice On Finding My Next Trucking Job

So I have learned from it and was also looking for companies that mit let me do training again since I'm a new driver and only been doing otr for 3 months. I'm willing to do that if it means I can drive again also thinking about team driving to show them I can drive.

Welcome,

Your statement is a little contradictory. You state you had no accidents or incidents then you say you had a few following to close situations, however you give no details.

Following to close at 55 mph is far different than 35 mph.

Trucking companies and insurance companies take those situations very serious because of the time/distance it takes to stop a truck.

I can see your prior company putting them on your DAC report because it is a high safety issue.

You can challenge the entries through DAC and maybe be successful. Those reports are very subjective kinda like a credit report.

The other issue you have is in this bad ecomomy many companies are being very pickey with their hiring. Less freight and alot of experienced drivers with spotless records are looking for jobs.

Apply thru 10 street and your app will go out to many companies at one time. Some are considered second chance companies and they may give you a shot. If anyone does don’t minimize the following too close incidents and tell them you learned from it and it won’t happen again. Your attitude will be very important.

I Need Some Advice On Finding My Next Trucking Job

So looking for some information about how to apply to a driving job if the last job I had put I had a incident on my dac report and I didn't have any accidents or incident. And now I can't get a driving job because of it. Or can you tell me company that will maybe little me do training and show them I can drive. So basically I got let go Because I had a few following to close. But they didn't even give me a chance to fix it and when I got back to the terminal for home time. I was told I needed to clean out my truck and now I can't get another driving job because of what they put on dac report.
