Being A Trucker In Europe For Non-European Trucker?
Topic 31372 | Page 1
To the O/P .... Mr. Sertac (like that name!) ... You'd have to get your class E (general USA license) for a year (commonality) before you can pursue your CDL. (Either class A OR B. ..... honestly.)
Personally, I think y'all's B'trains are more fascinating. Why DO you want to come stateside ?!?!?

I don’t think he wants to come to the US. I think he wants to drive in Europe.
I'm an experienced American driver who wants a halt to immigration an an end to the 19th amendment. What do you think of that?
Sorry you're out of luck. There's no work here.
Hello,
My name is Sertac. It's my first topic here. Hello to everyone, again :)
I'm from Turkey and 31 years old. I'm geological engineer. Maybe you know that, there are some economical problems in Turkey so i can't find job :)
Since my childhood, i'm interested in trucks. I have droven a few times in closed trafics. I'm good with lower consumption and mechanics. If i had driving licence which spelled es "CE" for truck + lorry for Turkey, can i have a trucking job?
BTW, i know how to use hydroulic retarders, exhaust / jake brakes, reverse parking, lowering consumption... I love to be in roads. I have drive lots of in construction sites etc...
Please help me. Have a nice, safer drivings...
See you!..
Wait; WHAT?!?

Dm:
Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.
Phil, if you’re truly an experienced trucker and have paid any attention whatsoever the last 20 years, you would realize that without immigration, we would have a huge driver shortage. The reason you see so many newer foreign drivers is because trucking is a profession that a large majority of the American public want nothing to do with. Not to mention the fact that you didn’t bother to read his post. He’s looking for information pertaining to his region of the world.

That's nice. A really well-thought out post of, "I hate foreigners!" Did I read that correctly. Phil?
You really don't have a useful purpose here then do you, Phil? There's probably a bridge somewhere you can return to.

Lest we forget, The 19th Amendment to the Constitution in a nutshell is the one that granted women the right to vote. Phil wants to get rid of this one.
As I read this, Phil hates foreigners and women voting.
We don't need this crap on here!

I've been driving 20 years and in the workforce 20 more and my ancestors have lived in and built this country up from the beginning. That being said, I have no more to say on this topic on this forum. I'm just going to keep it to the topic of trucking, if at all. Thank you and have a nice day.

@Phil M.Are you, a descendant of immigrants, comfortable with this anti-immigration attitude? How many generations ago has your family come here?
Welp, your the mod asking me a question and blocking my reply. So there's that.
