Graduated Students
First class Training
This school provided all the necessary resources and more to help you succeed as a commercial driver. They help you obtain your CDL class A license with above average training standards and have very experienced instructors who can help you understand the life beyond the wheel. Your yard owner also has owner operator experience with more around the country as soon as you start your ELDT training. I would recommend this school to everyone who wants to start a new career!! :)
One And Done Club 2025…
I’m most admit it was not easy or a piece of cake like I thought it was. I just made it look easy thanx to Samad and Ali my instructors… The East Orange, NJ Yard made the actual test a piece of cake though. Because if you can drive in the tight inner city streets of East Orange, Newark, Jersey City and Roselle you can drive anywhere and passing the test is gonna be as easy as writing your name. Samad and Ali got a lot of years of knowledge and wisdom that they instill in you. I’m very happy and grateful I was dealt this hand. I couldn’t ask for more. I also want to thank David and Tina as well. They also made this possible and they was there for me from day one…
Tacoma WA 160
Very flexible on their scheduling and Tacoma yard instructor Sue is the best.
My Career
My experience with 160 Driving Academy was great , thanks to my sweet and overly patient instructor Ms.Kristy Jones from Indiana !
Best class ever
My experience at Palos Hills with my BDM Julie mensching couldn’t have been better. After my 40hrs. Of class time she checked up on me constantly to see how my time on the yard was going and if there was anything that I needed that she could help me with. I really feel like she cared about not only my success while in class but in life in general. I recommend Palos for anyone who want to get their CDL they really are doing it the right way. Thanks Julie, you really are a trooper
Great For Self-starter
Great environment good instructors would recommend this school for those who are ready right now.
Good training from Shawn
During class Shawn is very patient attentive and gives good instructions and explanations of how to improve in areas you are having difficulty understanding. Thus far he has taken me step by step as well as the other students he has been a very positive and helpful instructor and it is now my responsibility to utilize what he has taught me, and pass my skills and road tests, he has given me confidence in my abilities as well as myself throughout my training. Great instructor and will help in anyway possible to make you feel comfortable and at ease in learning everything you need to know and understand. A great in experience learning.
Former Instructor
I will never recommended this school after getting laid off, your ethics and policies need to change in a big way, your equipment is junk and when leads need to jump through hoops to get anything fixed and have deal with people who have never seen the inside of a semi and have no clue to DOT Regulations is quite pathetic. I will never recommended 160 Driving Academy and your instructor are taken advantage off by your corporate kiss buts.
160 Driving Academy
From the very beginning, signing up with Sam to the yard dealing with nick and bob. Annett was also great. Very professional and respectful people. Love their jobs and are willing to help you however you need it. Sam and Annett are very nice people and will help you out whenever you ask, They are on it with quick responses. On the yard, very calm and respectful. Nick and Bob are amazing teachers that have patience. They are willing to help, even when it’s outside of school they are very understanding ( in my case I injured my knee) professional, respectful and love teaching others is what your getting at 160 yard in Sacramento and 160 all together. I own my own hauling business and I recommend this school to anyone that wants to learn.
Review of 160
Staff was extremely helpful in accommodating my timeline to complete this training. I felt that each staff member I worked with made it their personal goal to help me toward success. Great school and I would highly recommend.
