One Week Until I Start With Prime CDL Training
Topic 16187 | Page 1
Any suggestions as I prepare to start? thanks
I am also starting at Prime I will be there on the 19th of this month. As far as being ready I would recommend going through the High Road Training Program on here. It has been a huge help. I am currently on my second time working through it just to be sure I have no doubts about passing once I arrive in Springfield. I can promise you this will help you pass your CDL permit test.
CDL:
Commercial Driver's License (CDL)
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
- Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
- Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.
I am starting the same day. I guess I will see you there!
Best of luck to you both!

Thanks a bunch!!!
Will be interested to follow this thread, am tentively scheduled there for Oct. 3rd, or Jim Palmer for end of this month. Still trying to decide which way to go. So sugar coat nothing you do or go through there. ☺
Be interested to know what class size is, how trainers are, support staff, etc.
Followed one other Prime thread but thst was a year old.

Will do. I plan on starting a separate thread and try to give as much detailed information as possible on the whole process.
Ugh that last post was messed up. Thank my iPhone for that ha ha. Anyway I will be starting a new post with as much detailed information as possible in the training forum.
New question for Ice & Brian, or anyone that has gone through the PST
Was reviewing the stuff on Prime here, and I notice they (prime) mentions the Hazmat endorsement as needed. The email i recieved they noted they wanted me to study up on the tanker endorsement, yet there literature also mention that tanker drivers required 1 year of experience.
Was curious if your email said hazmat or tanker endorsment as the extra to study up on?
HAZMAT:
Hazardous Materials
Explosive, flammable, poisonous or otherwise potentially dangerous cargo. Large amounts of especially hazardous cargo are required to be placarded under HAZMAT regulations
