I am a convicted felon, can I become a truck driver?
Your felonies have some age to them...so you are in better shape than someone who has a fresh felony. But the charge itself does have some bearing on your ability to get hired.....BUT......if you are tenacious....and apply EVERYWHERE....sooner or later, you will find a truck seat to fit your buns....It takes perseverance...and a Want To attitude....trust me, it can be done. You should start by deciding how you are going to get into school. Do you have funds to pay your way??? if you aren't employed, you can apply for the WIA program at your employment office. If you are a Vet..they have programs, also. Community colleges have CDL programs....and there are always the company schools, but if you talk to them, inform them of your felonies, so they can tell you if they can get you into a truck. in all situations... BE HONEST...cuz not telling them only puts off the inevitable...they WILL run your record. And hang around here...we have helped alot of folks with felonies find a steering wheel they can call their own....IT CAN BE DONE... So if you feel like it, you can give us a little more info, and we'll see what we can come up with together !!!! WELCOME TO TT !!!!! We are glad you found us...
I am trying to get funding from WIA in SC. They require me to get pre-hire letters before they will approve my schooling. I am trying to get letters now, I have one need at least two more. Anyone want to give me one.

From class B to class A
You do not have to start over. I had a class B and only needed the combination.
