As a Connecticut truck driver, you may be able to enjoy many benefits of employment. Salaries in this region tend to be pretty competitive. Connecticut truck drivers earn an average salary of $45,300 per year (O*Net, 2014). This is over $5000 more than the national average salary for truck drivers (O*Net, 2014). Some companies offer bonuses for new drivers or drivers who take on long-haul routes, which may further boost your income. Between 2012 and 2022, you may see job openings swell by 10% (O*Net, 2012).

Several prominent truck driving companies are located in Connecticut, which means that there are many diverse employment opportunities. Some of these companies are A&R Transport, West Side Transport, Bay & Bay Transportation, and TMC Transportation.

Like in most other states, you cannot drive a straight truck or tractor-trailer in Connecticut without first earning a commercial driver’s license. The Connecticut Division of Motor Vehicles oversees all licensing of commercial drivers.

The first step in the licensure process is completing the written exam and getting a learner’s permit. There are two main ways to do this. You can either study the commercial driver’s license manual and take the exam or you can attend the first part of a truck driving course in preparation for your written exam.

With your learner’s permit, you’re ready to start earning driving hours and working towards a full commercial driver’s license. Upon completing your training course, you can schedule a road exam. The exam includes a pre-trip inspection, a basic skills test, and an on-the-road driving examination. Once you pass all three parts of this exam, you receive a CDL that is good for four years.Trucking is an industry in which there is strength in numbers. By joining fellow drivers and trucking professionals, you can protect your business, support positive legislation, and strengthen the industry. The Motor Transport Association of Connecticut is the main networking association for Connecticut drivers. Membership benefits include health care insurance, life insurance, and truck insurance.

You can also be part of important initiatives in the trucking industry, like a new piece of legislation or cutting-edge training opportunities. The training library at MTAC helps you stay compliant in your trucking career and avoid costly infractions.

The networking events are an important part of membership in this group. By meeting with peers in the industry, you can learn about new job openings and become part of the trucking community at large.
