Answer :

There are a large number of truck lines that will teach you how to drive the big rigs. As for making the most money in a short period of time, you might try one of the ‘dedicated freight hauling lines’. If you have traffic citations on your record, or if you have not passed your 21st birthday, you may have a difficult time in getting hired by a reputable company. However, most truck lines are always looking for additional drivers.
