Can't drive a car anymore...

I sleep better in my truck than at home. And my rogue feels like a freaking go cart with a tiny steering wheel. I twitch and change lanes. And backing up Omg feel like I'm 15 again and just learning.

I got it! Kind of....

That's awesome! I used the high road too and it was great. I had one odd question about belts cracking from heat but otherwise pretty spot on with the Minnesota manual. I also had my dot card already, instead they got me with the whole married/divorced name change thing. I had to bring both marriage license and divorce decree to show my name change. Lol

How far back do hair folicle tests go?

1.5" of hair will go back 90 days. Its all based on how long your hair is. My hair is over 16" long however standard procedure at my employer was just 1.5". 90 days is the industry standard and you would have to have longer hair for them to go back any farther if they wanted to.

Truck driving school

I just finished up School at Heavy Metal Truck Training in Inver Grove Heights Minnesota and I cant say enough great things about this school. Reasonably priced (I took the 6 week class). Student to Instructor ratio was small, and I passed my CDL road test by my 6th week of school. This is a GREAT school for anyone in Minnesota who's looking into going into the trucking industry!!

Women divorced or married identification needed to obtain your CDL

Your very lucky. I spent a whole day hanging around our government center waiting in lines to get all the documents I needed. I'm glad it's over and I start school on the 8th. Woo hoo!

Women divorced or married identification needed to obtain your CDL

I also have had federal background checks that didn't require all this extra identification. I was very surprised when the DMV asked for all this. Minnesota just started doing it.

Requirements effective May 4, 2015:

Beginning May 4, Minnesotans will ALSO need the following in order to apply:

Proof of citizenship or permanent residency (U.S. passport, birth certificate, permanent residency card). If the name on your U.S. passport, birth certificate or permanent residency card has changed you must also present proof of your legal name change(s). Acceptable proof consists of certified marriage certificates, certified divorce decrees or other certified court orders. Divorce decrees or other court orders must specify the name change. Your identity and name change documents need to show a clear link between your citizenship or permanent residency document and your current name.
