Allen Smith is a veteran OTR Driver with over 3 million safe miles and the owner of various trucking companies over the years. His desire to see people succeed within the trucking industry began back in 2000 when he wrote his first book, "The Truth About Trucking". This book was designed to enlighten and warn cdl students, new cdl drivers, and trucking career seekers, about the scams within the trucking industry which has devastated many over the years. The immediate welcome of this very needed information was embraced by people from all over and soon began Allen's movement of "Raising the Standards of the Trucking Industry. http://www.TruthAboutTrucking.com Soon the famous AskTheTrucker.com blog was introduced where those desiring more of Allen's articles and opinions could be read and shared with him and with one another. Allen's next book, "So You've Got Your CDL...Now What?" has also been an immediate success as it addresses the many questions that new cdl drivers face when just entering the world of trucking. An example of this would be the many examples given on how to correctly do "your logs", which has confused many a new driver over the years, costing them hundreds of dollars in fines. Many other topic and questions are also addressed in order to relieve the stress and fears that new drivers face. http://www.CDLQuestions.com Allen's most recent book, " The Best Truck Driving Jobs- A State by State Guide". released in late 2008, has quickly become a source for ALL drivers as it gives Allen's choices for some of the best trucking companies to work for throughout the USA. This list is like no other as it is based upon actual criteria and not payment provided by the companies in order to be on the list( as so many lists provided to drivers are). http://www.truckdrivingjobslist.com Allen continues to provide information fro ALL students and Drivers and welcomes feedback and opinions in order to aid those seekeing a successful career in the trucking industry. He invites all to listen to his Blog Talk Radio show and to participate in the chat and call ins. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/truthabouttrucking
