Recommended CDL Schools

[nicholaspeters]

I am looking for a CDL school. Any recent graduates with recommendations?

Any of the SAGE schools are OK. Make sure the in-truck instruction is one-on-one.

It’s not that hard to drive one of these. Just don’t run over expensive things

That's, of course, why all you Canadians continuously complain about all the big truck wrecks on the 401.

That guy who killed all those people on I70 this summer probably followed your advice too.

When I hear a thump during a lane change I always say to myself "What was that? Probably a Prius" and then proceed to chuckle because I'm funny.

Any school you go to is only going to teach you enough to pass the CDL inspection and skills test.

As bad as swift is, I suggest swift, they probably have a terminal close to you (since it's a large company) once you get your cdl, find a job somewhere else! Don't worry about paying them, they'll just turn it over to an agency. Many companies will hire and train new cdl holders. You will waste your time with a swift trainer, they just use you to drive, and teach you nothing.

Nothing like trashing your credit.
