CDL Driving Lessons

All CDL training applicants must comply with all medical fitness and vision requirements. The minimum age for a CDL license is 18, but you must be 21 to apply for a hazardous material or passenger CDL endorsements, or to drive any commercial vehicle outside of the state (interstate).

Class A CDL License

If you are interested in tractor trailer driving you will need to have a Class A CDL license. With a Class A CDL license you can also operate Class B vehicles and Class C vehicles, provided you have the proper extra CDL endorsements.

The first step is to begin studying and preparing for your theory tests with our proven method of study. You must pass 3 theory tests: general knowledge, air brakes and combination vehicles. The theory tests are administered at most Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) locations and consist of 50 questions for general knowledge, 25 questions for air brakes, 25 questions for combination vehicles.

After you pass all 3 required theory tests you will then begin to view our instructional videos, and you will also begin your driving lessons. Once you have mastered tractor trailer driving, we will take you to your road tests.

Class B CDL License (Straight Truck, Bus)

If you are interested in straight truck driving or a bus driving you will need to have a Class B CDL license. With a Class B CDL license you can also operate Class C vehicles, provided you have the proper extra CDL endorsements.

The first step is to begin studying and preparing for your theory tests with our proven method of study. You must pass 2 theory tests: general knowledge and air brakes. The theory tests are administered at most MVC locations and consist of 50 questions for general knowledge and 25 questions for air brakes.

After you pass both required theory tests you will then begin to view our instructional videos, and you will also begin your driving lessons. Once you have mastered straight truck driving and/or bus driving, we will take you to your road test.

Bus: If you wish to use your Class B CDL license for bus driving you must also meet the requirements for a passenger CDL endorsement.

It is recommended that you pass the requirements for the passenger CDL endorsement when you are going for your Class B CDL license because the difference in cost is minimal and you will be able to drive a full-sized bus in addition to a straight truck.
