    Good morning!
    I was looking at Knights website and the driving school looks interesting. The school is the only one I have seen that offers to pay while attending. However, don't see much on health benefits any input would be helpful. Are you satisfied with hometime? Do they get you home when requested. I'm in indianapolis so i'm curious how often I would get home? I left a message for a recruiter but haven't heard back yet.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    Hello! I don't know a thing about the school but I can answer your other questions. Your home time depends on the schedule you run. If you run regular otr you get home about every two weeks for a couple of days. Like 2 or 3. If you do the casual schedule they have different options. They have 7/7, 14/7, and 21/7. Like 14 days out and 7 off. You will be slip seating on those options but you get home and stay there for more than 2 days. I run 14/7. Works well for me. As far as getting you home when requested.... Depends on the dispatcher. Some trips you get home on time some your a day or two late. My rule of thumb. If I need to be home Friday. I tell them Wednesday. Cause I'm always a day or two late. If you do come on and your looking to do the casual thing the money is good while your running. Just remember while your at home your not earning. Also one more bit of advice for the casual side. Don't accept loads to the southwest. Like west of El Paso. If you get into Arizona. Your gonna be there awhile. Takes two to three weeks to get off the west coast. You'll spend all that time running the crappy loads their driver won't touch. Just a friendly heads up. Goodluck!
