Profile For Altonb G.

Thank You, I will check it out...

I too am from Florida, and I have someone in my class who had a class B for a few years and wanted to upgrade to class A. He was one of the four students who graduated on Friday. He had to study for and pass the combinations and air brakes test to get his class A permit. I believe he already took general knowledge to get his class B. He then had to go through the school since he never drove a combination vehicle with air brakes before. He didn't even know how to double clutch. 16 days later, and after passing the logbooks, recaps, eTread, drop and hook, pre-trip, in cab, pad tests (straight line, off set and either parallel or alley dock) and road tests the school graduated him (after making sure he put in the required hours and finished all of the online homework). He will take his papers down to the DMV on Monday to prove that he graduated from Roadmaster's, and he should have no problems getting his class A.

I hope this helps.

I am in the Bradenton/ Sarasota area any recomendations on a training school ?

Thanks for info. my company is actually willing to cover the cost, I appreciate the help.

The news is a little bleak I'm afraid. You need to go to a private or company sponsored school to obtain your A. On a positive note you will be ahead of the game when you are there. So you need to take the permit test first then figure out what route you want to take private or company sponsored school.
