Essential Preparation for New Orleans CDL Careers
CDL careers are not as simple as driving a vehicle just like you would your family’s car. No, a CDL career takes lots of preparation both on the road and in the classroom.
Our skilled instructors make sure to teach you the essentials of truck driving, and you’ll receive four full weeks of:
- Classroom Training: Don’t make the mistake of assuming laws are the same for operating a big truck as they are for your personal vehicle. There are a lot more rules and regulations you’ll need to follow pulling so much weight behind you, which is why we spend a week in the classroom.
- Behind-the-Wheel Instruction: There’s only so much you can learn from a book. That’s why we make sure you get plenty of observation time to see your instructor drive a truck. And, of course, you’ll get your own chance to get a feel for driving a truck on city streets and on the highway.
