I'm assuming you mean "over the road" by OTR. If you plan on doing. it in a tractor trailer or expedited van with a gross weight rating of over 26,000 lbs., then yes. You can still drive OTR without being in a vehicle requiring a CDL, however - companies like Tri State, Fed Ex Custom Critical, Panther II, etc will lease out owner/operators with a 3/4 ton or 1 ton cargo van, although you would need a Class C CDL with hazmat endorsement if these companies required you to have hazmat on your licence.
The company which owns the vehicle insures the vehicle, not the staffing agency providing the driver.
There are several perils/risks I can think of, contact a local agent and discuss what risks you should seek protection from.
Yes, you will need insurance to drive with a CDL license.
Yes you do need a CDL License to drive a bucket truck.
You will need a Class B CDL with tanker endorsement.
You can repo without one. You only need a CDL if you're going to be operating vehicles or combinations which would require a CDL in normal operation. So, if you're repossessing Class 8 trucks, you'd need a CDL. If you're just repossessing a passenger car, you wouldn't need it.
If you need to earn your CDL for your job, the best thing that you can do is to attend a CDL training school. By attending one of the many CDL training schools, you can learn the basics of driving a truck. A CDL school will teach you the most important things that you will need to know to pass the CDL test. You will also get plenty of hours of practice driving a truck.
The common side effects are drowsiness, dizziness, lack of concentration. This drug is doubtful as being allowed with CDL. There are many aspects though. You should meet with your doctor. In some cases, the user of the medication has to be monitored while on it for a period of time. In other cases you can drive LTL but not OTR.
You can only hold one CDL, so there's no need to pluralize it. Any bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver), you need a CDL with a passenger endorsement.
If the vehicle requires a CDL in service, it'll require a CDL for the test drive.
It depends on the model. You need a CDL to drive one that bends in the middle or is over a certain length
Yes. To have an active CDL, you need a current DOT physical, always.
