In order to become an interstate(outside of your state) truck driver, you must already have your Commercial Driving License(CDL). To obtain this license you must attend a truck driving school approved by the Department of Transportation which will give you a general knowledge written test and a driving test. You also must be over 21, or 23 in some states, before you can go out of state.
