I got my Class A in 2005 was driving pretty steady since 2006 since july 2006 I have worked for 2 companies 1 of them twice and 1 between them for 3.3 years.. I was in a roll over caused by the wind and havent drove since 04/07/2014.

I have been released to go back to work.. But it has been 2 years since I drove and no one will give me a driving job because of the two year break from driving..what can I do about it

Getting back on the road after time off
by: Hervy

After two years off of the road, it will be pretty hard to get hired. Your best chance is to find a small trucking company local to you.

If you want to skip all of the fishing, you will have to go back to truck driving school. You may find a refresher course since you have driven before.

If you are unemployed right now, you might check with local workforce or employment security to see if they have a program that will pay for you to go to truck driving school.

Good luck
