Cdl holders must have the license on them, I lost my license doesn't work. Get pulled over no license its an automatic 30 day suspension at that moment. Regardless of if your are legal to drive a CMV or not.

Every cdl holder should now this. I sat three days once waiting for my license to be over nighted once because I left my license at my trucking company after they made a new copy of it because of adding hazmat to it. I and my leader got to talking and we both forgot... Hour later message stop now.NOW.

As for the unlucky cdl holder, find a way home or call your DMV of your state and ask them what to do. Sadly you may have to get a ride into your DMV for a replacement license and sadly if you are like me and have your medical card I'm your license guess what either get a copy from your company or get another physical.

I am not sure I get your situation. If you are a driver and you are stuck somewhere without your drivers license and the trucking company has stopped you from driving.....

What are they doing?

Seems like they would either send you home or send a truck with extra driver to get you back home.

If you have a valid drivers license they should have a copy of it and the drivers license is still valid though you don't have the physical card.

Whether or not they will fire you, I can't tell you that. They only know that.
