Do you teach ELDT theory or classroom lessons?
No. We provide behind-the-wheel training only. Complete ELDT theory with an FMCSA-registered theory provider before your road training starts.

When can I train?
We book sessions around your availability, Mon–Fri 8:00 am–5:00 pm and Sat 8:00 am–12:30 pm.
Why does air brake training matter?
If you test in a vehicle without full air brakes, your CDL will carry an air brake restriction. All our programs use air-brake equipped vehicles.
Do I need my own truck?
No. You train in our vehicles. [CONFIRM: whether our vehicle is used on DMV test day]
Can I drive a school bus with a Class B and P endorsement?
No. School bus drivers also need the School Bus (S) endorsement and a California school bus certificate.
What language is training in?
English.
Do you train on manual or automatic trucks?
Both. Choose manual or automatic transmission training. If you take your skills test in an automatic, your CDL will carry an automatic-transmission restriction, so pick manual if you want to drive manual trucks.
