**The Number of Trucking Companies and CDLs Issued Without a Full Legal Name Is Truly Absurd**
*Posted by TigerClaws (MaybeDanielleLeee)*

I’ve been talking about this issue for months. The number of trucking companies and commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) issued without a full legal name is truly absurd.

**TigerClaws:**
For my job, I sometimes pull a trailer that has to follow all the Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. I’m paranoid about weigh stations and logging. I’m sure I’m doing some things wrong because, as an occasional driver, it’s very complex. Yet these people get away with bogus licenses, illegal status, and can’t even speak the language. I’d love it if DOT officers announced that they were concentrating only on clearing the roads of these individuals.

This has been going on forever. Who do you think is hauling out of the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach?

I went to trucking school for three months and then had my skills tested thoroughly for four months by a trainer before the company let me drive on my own. I can’t imagine anyone doing any less.
