Passed my test the first time

First i would like to thank Arrin my instructor for pushing me above and beyond expecially with safety. Also for all the others , Blake,Brian , and other instructor with the locks on his head to give me other ways of training. The people in front office kept me on schedule and was able and willing to work with me from beginning to end. IM CLASS A MANUAL BABY!!!!!

NIght School was GREAT!!!

When I first ventured into getting my CDL the deciding factor for me was I needed to go to an evening or night school since I am still employed. The 160 Driving Academy was the only location that I could take at night. It was tough but the instructors Jimmy Danas and Jeremy Clark were absolutely GREAT. They maintained a professional environment and were very patient with me and the other students. I fully endorse this school and wholeheartedly recommend 160 Driving Academy to anyone considering getting their CDL. Thanks Jimmy & Jeremy for helping me get "One & Done"! Jeff W - Houston
