I've long been considering being a truck driver. I've also looked over DOT regulation and maybe I've missed it, but is it DOT regulation that you cannot carry while on the job, or is it company policy only? I know 90% of companies tell you you cannot carry, but what about O/O's? Are they allowed to carry while driving?
I ask because I would hate to drive into some cities and be unarmed. Now I know it would be dumb to drive into Chicago while carrying, but other cities that would be legal if I had both available non-Res. licenses also wouldn't matter so much. And being a Truck driver, you can plan to get gas before you come to a state or city that forbids it if you don't have to stop there.
I personally know many drivers who carry anyway, anywhere, and don't care one way or another, but for my own piece of mind I was just wondering.
