I've been contemplating for a couple of weeks now getting cdl training. I have some questions that hopefully you guys and ladies can help me with.
We always hear truck drivers make good money, etc....I always assumed I could start off making at least $700 a week after taxes. But, it seems like i'm reading on here expect around $400 a week your first few months??
One big thing that's also been holding me back from finally going to cdl school, has been i have chronic fatigue. I have found that red bulls and things have helped. Do you guys have any remedies/tips or would you say since i have chronic fatigue driving 18 wheelers isn't for me?
Driving in my car, i once swerved off the road driving in the rain, I live in Georgia so naturally every time it snows, i'm sliding everywhere. Another concern about driving trucks, i know i'll have to drive through all kinds of weather and traffic. Is driving in the rain or snow easier in a truck or safer?
As a newbie is there more or less money in driving as a team? What are the pros and con of teams?
Thanks
