Can I get a Pa Truck driving job at 20 years old?

by Kasandra
(Ellwood City, Pennsylvania, USA)

I just decided I want to get my CDL license and I will be 20 in 4 days.

The school that I am looking into says that it is a 6 week program and it starts in 13 days. So I will still be 20 when I receive my CDL. Are there any jobs for people my age, especially in PA?

You will have to ask the schools age requirement to know for sure but you only have to be 18 to get a CDL so I can't imagine them turning you away.

However you must be 21 to drive Over the road.

To take care of those license while your waiting man!

I believe you can start school as long as you are 21 before you get your permit. No one will hire you unless they are some shotty company.

Reason being insurance purposes. And also the fact you have to be 21 to obtain a cdl. Good luck
