CDL-A OTR Driver

Downriver and Detroit Class A drivers: OTR miles that stay east, two weeks out and home for your reset, with a paid seat if you're new.

Fresh out of CDL school? You don't need experience to start here. You'll ride with a seasoned mentor first, paid, and move to full solo pay the day you finish. The freight keeps you east of the plains, so the miles are steady and the routes get familiar.
