Kentucky fast-tracks commercial driver's licenses for veterans
Original: Kentucky fast-tracks commercial driver’s licenses for military veterans
Kentucky is speeding up the process for military veterans to obtain commercial driver's licenses, letting former service members bypass parts of the standard testing and paperwork requirements. The measure is intended to help veterans translate military driving experience into civilian trucking jobs, and comes as states look to ease workforce shortages in the trucking industry.
Why now: Kentucky has just announced or enacted a policy change helping veterans enter civilian trucking jobs more quickly
