I would guess that if you were a CDL A driver with this company then the information should be traceable somehow as all companies have to follow DOT Standards which means there has to be some sort of Government record that the company did exsist at one time. Working for them for one year means that you should have a w2 statement from them and of course paycheck stubs, Hell even you're bank would most likely have a scanned copy of the checks you cashed.
No offense meant but I have a hard time understanding how can someone go through life with out documenting what they do for a living. Maybe it is just me as I am anal about all my record keeping, I can tell you what I made and spent each year dating back to 1999, each year I condense the info and shred what is not needed, Oh Sh.t I see my father in me...... amazing what you pick up from you're parents...
Thanks Mom & Dad...

Ditto on personal record-keeping.
No matter how much the company/person blew, I still have records from them in preparation for those "next-step in the career-life" moments.

I encountered this as well all I had to do was provide W2's to prove I was there, that's it.
