Recommendations:

Talk to company drivers about their experiences before you hire onto a company. Do NOT be fooled by Hiring Bonuses as that usually means that the company just lost a lot of drivers for some reason!

Access to the "secret files" about you at your employer vary from state to state and it's important to find out what access you are entitled to on records that are kept on file. Your home state usually dictates your accessablity.
