[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 2566054, member: 8481"] No it is not. The issue is interstate commerce. The FMCSA has a minimum age of 21 to transport, or engage in, interstate commerce. States may set lower ages for intrastate commerce, but UPS is involved in interstate commerce. A package driver usually does not cross state lines and only engages in intrastate transport, but that does not have anything to do with the age requirement. A package driver is delivering packages from interstate commerce and is engaged in interstate commerce deliveries, thus having to be 21. As long as there is 1 package that you deliver from outside your state, you are engaged in interstate commerce. A driver delivering packages from a manufacturer to businesses within that state does not necessarily have to be 21 since they are solely involved in intrastate commerce, but all UPS package drivers are involved in interstate commerce.
