Before or after he explains the “mad frenzy” and how trucking is like the weather?
Not sure where he is doing all of his research... certain it’s not here.
with yearly truck sales being the best indicator.
Please explain this part to me, if you will?
I have a new question, didn't want to start another thread. The February 7th changes seem to be confusing to some and maybe to me as well. I've called around to some private schools and get different answers.
One shool told me that I can test out with just a permit if I got the permit before the 7th. He also told me that if I do not have my license then I cannot take a refresher course. Thinking to take the refresher course mostly for the pretrip as some states are different than others.
Another school tells me that if I don't have my license it doesn't matter what the law states, I have to take the full 160 hour course... I'm guessing he's saying that for the money.
I called Road Masters here in Orlando and they said they are only training people who are going to Werner, so if I'm not going with Werner I cannot test there.
Why not?
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
Where is “here”? And what mad frenzy?
Its the same thing around here #truckershortage nonsense and the sudden new Feb 7th changes have created a mad frenzy. I have followed trucking for a while, mulling it over but always changed my mind but I have to admit the media hype got to me as well lol. One things for sure trucking, weather, economy are all the same thing, they can get really good or suddenly flatline for a while, with yearly truck sales being the best indicator. I spent a good amount of time reading up on training reviews and it made my head hurt to sift thru it all. Hope you get a decent place to get your CDL.
Well the CDL schools are booked until 6 to 8 weeks out here in NY, if you have the time I will post the phone number here and you can make 2 minute call to find out, this is NYC which has about 2 that may be the approved kind and two others I am not so sure about.

Truck sales are the best indicators of Trucking jobs, economy, which means more trucks bought = more money flowing thru our pockets in a nutshell if that helps.

Weather = traffic = trucking btw I used to know a guy who ate rocks, dirt in kindergarten when he was a kid he seemed to like it. Oh and my profile says NY and that's the area I am talking about hope that helps I have a hard time putting two and two together and its kind of annoying so bear with me.

The permit should be be good for the 'behind the wheel' requirements, its the endorsement part that was changed and even if you passed before 2/7/22 and the permit expires you can renew the permit and just have to take the endorsement tests again at the DMV one time AFAIK, YMMV. The online course cost $300 for all of them or $50 per like Hazmat.

Oh. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Can you expand on this further? I really want to gather all the information I can from somebody that clearly has a true understanding of the trucking industry.

Chuck;
I agree with G'town; CLICK THAT LINK!! (Kinda like AGT .. push that buzzer!)
If you do go with RoadMasters (that's who Tom graduated with in 2003, needing to meet (greet) the buck sixty then,) what's wrong with Werner? Granted, that was NO stipulation/partnership, back then. Tom went with USX ... have you looked into them? Raider Express? Pride Transport?
Just be cognizant of the fact, that Werner likes to pair new drivers with Dollar Store Accounts. Read PapaPig's summary diary, here:
1 Year Review of Werner DG/Dedicated.
And, his departure from said account:
Wish you the best, either way. Trying to 'think outside' the box, for ya!
