Accomplishment

My experience was very helpful and got me where I needed to be. All the instructors were amazing. Also Romary was a big reason why I was even able to attend this program. I am grateful for the experience.

A New Beginning

My experience at 160 Driving Academy was far from easy learning something new like this plenty of times I wanted to give up but with the support of fellow students and the instructors I didn’t give up made it the instructors are tuff but fair with the teaching and understanding that behind the wheel u have to take not only your safety it others around as well...It was a great experience and Thank You 160 Academy for changing my life ..Trucking Driving her I come...

Satisfied Graduate

My entire experience was very rewarding. Starting with the assistance of the Recruiter RoMary and including the instructors. Everyone at 160 Driving Academy made my experience there enjoyable. I am truly grateful for their assistance.

Highly Recommend 160 Academy!!!

160 Academy was a phenomenal experience for me. From the classroom to the yard, the instructors were very knowledgeable in every aspect. It took me only three days to pass my written exam at the DMV and then three weeks later the 1st day I was able test for my pre-trip, skill, and road test I past with flying colors. So If you are serious about getting your CDL’S first go and sign up with Romary in the office. Next you’ll be in Dave’s classroom an excellent instructor he’s going to give everything you need to pass the written exam. Here is something that stuck with me remember ( YOU ARE NOT DRIVING A VOLKSWAGEN!!!!). Lori is going to teach you how to pass pre-trip just remember to have camera phone ready on record she is going to run it down. Antonio on driving another excellent instructor. Last but not least you have your lead instructor Greg only thing I can say is (TO COOL!!!!) 160 THE BEST !!!!!!

Wonderful

Had a wonderful experience, the branch manager was very helpful and professional she made sure I stayed on track once at the yard. The instructors were wonderful and patient.
