A tractor-trailer truck driver is a person who drives large commercial vehicles that transport goods and materials.
Drivers transport freight for many different companies, including large shipping companies.
Truck drivers usually have a commercial driver’s license, and must undergo a series of tests given by state licensing authorities before receiving their commercial driver’s license.
These tests are designed to test a person’s driving skills, their ability to operate a vehicle safely and in heavy traffic, and their knowledge of the rules of the road.
Truck drivers are required to obtain a commercial driver’s license before working.
All truck drivers are required to have a Class A or Class B license.
