The way the economy is right now, no. There are many companies hiring, but, they are always hiring. They have such a turnover of drivers that they need constant replacements.

How much weight can a commercial vehicle carry?
It depends on the commercial vehicle, how it's licensed, the state it's running in, and a lot of other things, but a tractor-trailer combination with tandem axles on the tractor and the trailer can generally carry 80,000 pounds--12,000 on the front axle and 34,000 on the tractor and trailer tandems.
What is a bobtail tractor?
One with no trailer. When you go to a truck stop, a lot of them have "bobtail parking" areas. They don't want you to park the tractor itself in a place a tractor with a trailer can fit, so they'll take the real short areas and designate them "bobtail parking" zones.
Do you need a class A to drive a bobtail tractor?
You could get by driving just a bobtail with a Class B CDL, but it's going to raise a lot of questions if ever you should be pulled over by a Motor Carrier Enforcement official. You could even pull a trailer, so long as the weight rating of the trailer was under 10,000 lbs.
What training can you take to drive a tractor trailer?
Um,... Yes. You can go to truck driving school. If you're looking for one in the USA, a good search word for google is "CDL" (commercial driver's license). I typed in "CDL" and "school", and it looks like there's quite a lot of them to choose from.
Will an 11R24.5 fit beside a 11R22.5 for a 500 mile trip on a tractor trailer?
Very bad idea. That's a lot of wear both on the tire and on the drivetrain.. namely, the differential.
What do you do after you get the coffee for kirk on back lot island?
Drive to the trailer and give it to Kirk. (there are 2 costumes in his trailer) The director will tell you to see him at Sound stage 1 to do some odd jobs around the lot. Drive back there and fill in for the cameraman who is leaving for the day.
How do driving points affect jobs?

What kind of experience does one need for driving work?
There is not a lot of experience that one needs in order to do driving work. The only experience that one needs, in most driving work jobs, is a driving license.
What do you need to go from a Florida CDL B to a CDL A?
As far as written tests go, you only need to take combination vehicles and air brakes (if applicable and if you don't already have it). The difficult part is going to be finding a vehicle for your road test. You need to test in a tractor-trailer, or else you receive a "no tractor-trailer" restriction. If you're looking to go OTR, or to just go work for a different company and drive a tractor-trailer, you really should go to a truck driving school. If you don't have Class A experience in a tractor-trailer, any company you apply with is going to treat you as an inexperienced driver, no matter how much Class B experience, no matter how much experience you have with unsynchronised transmissions, etc you might have. If you can't afford the school, and are seeking an OTR job, several companies offer their own school in-house, which is free of charge provided you work for them for a year or so. Additionally, if your work had you driving something like a single axle straight truck, you had either a synchronised manual shift transmission or an automatic, in which case, you especially need to go to truck driving school. The unsynchronised transmissions found in Class 8 trucks are a lot different, and do not shift the same way.
I recently was in a rear end accident with a tractor trailer and they were cited. How can I find an attorney to help me out?
Look up accident attorneys in your city. There are ususally a lot of them if you are in a decently sized city and they will always be willing to take on your case.
Can police search your tractor trailer with out consent?
As with any other vehicle, it'll require probable cause. If a police officer sees a lot lizard go into your truck, for example, then they have probable cause to search that vehicle.
Do you lose 15 coins with tractor when plowing each lot on Farmville?
