Greatest driving Instructors

I love 160 Driving Academy because the instructors from the classroom theory to Practical Driving are awesome, they will find the time for 1 on 1 training, it would be dumb for you to fail a driving test after training at 160. I had no experience and after a was done in 4 weeks i was a rockstar on the road. The instructors made driving a Semi tractor trailer really fun.

160 review

My experience at 160 in Pittsburgh was very beneficial. All the instructors there were very good and very helpful in teaching me. They really cared about the progress of the students and made me better each day. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone who is going to cdl school. They also helped me get a job set up right after school making great money as a newbie.

Would not recommend

My experience was not great, the second week of class I started driver training at the yard. Almost immediately they were short on instructors and when driving, all the students had to pile into 1 truck, that's 3 in the back and 1 driving with the instructor in the passenger seat with no A/C in July. 4 hours total all week. Then when I complained about the lack of drive time for manual transmission driving the regional manager came to the site and was very arrogant with me saying basically that's how it's done. When I went to take my state test they brought me a trailer that did not have the current inspection stickers and paperwork with it so I couldn't test with it, then the next day they brought me a 53ft trailer that I had never practiced with (I only practiced with a 48ft). I failed that test. I had to drive 2 hours both directions both days on my dime for there screw up. I eventually got my CDL. Afterwords I asked for help finding a job and someone from there job placement department called me and said he would start working on getting me a list of interested employers...that was 3 weeks ago and I haven't heard from anyone since. I have a good job driving for a local company now, but I would suggest to anyone not to wast your money at 160.

I’m a Trucker!

Just want to say thank you to all the good people at 160 for the well organized course & new trucking experience! I went in not knowing anything & now I am more knowledgeable about motor vehicles & driving prospective in general than I ever did. I appreciate them for providing all the necessary tools & techniques to help me change my life. Thank you
