Hi Drivers

I'm flying to Nashville 3/4/17 to start Western Express Flatbed. I have driven local and have about 23 years experience in beverage industry from 1983 to 2007.

I realize I am considered a newbie due to 10 year lapse of no driving and will be refresher.

Regardless Im excited to start and know OTR Flatbed will be a challenging start and learning curve. OTR is quite different that local home every day but am prepared or so i think lol

Any advise and words of wisdom of what to expect and do from those with experience in OTR flatbed would be greatly appreciated

Warm regards and keep it safe

OTR:

Over The Road

OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.
