best place to find out is in in the book to see driver qualifications.

i knew a guy who drove a greyhound type bus interstate and he only could hear sounds not talking , unless he w2as looking at you.
i think you must be able to hear emergency sirens. to be able to move over and allow those vehicles to pass your big truck.
