My name is John and I am an electrician. I have been looking to make a transition into the high voltage side working along side Edison however one of the requirements is to have a Class A drivers license. I know of the training Schools but i am a working electrician and based on the terms i just want to find a person to just show me everything i need to know, get some hands on experience so that i can pass the test at the DMV. I happen to live in California Orange County

To take the Class A you will have to provide a truck and trailer and get it to the DMV legally for taking the road test, the DMV does not provide a truck and trailer. You would need to find someone to not only take the time to teach you everything but also take you to the test in their rig.
The written tests are not that hard, you can take the practice tests by clicking on CDL Practice Tests at the top of any page on this forum. For a Class A you need to take the General Knowledge, Air Brake, and Combination Vehicles written tests and then pass the pre-trip and road tests at the DMV.
Not sure how it is in the power industry but most companies hiring CDL drivers want divers that have gone to a school. When you go to a school the school will provide the truck and trailer you need for the road test. -

I'll give you a couple of driving lessons so you can pass the CDL written & driving test... But you have to give me a couple of lessons in electrical work so I can pass the tests to become a certified master electrician. Deal?
Cetane+ Thanks this. -

I couldnt figure out what your point was..
But, no problem -
Hahahaha im not trying to just get the bare minimum to drive a semi-truck casually or any other way, it is just to satisfy the requirements and it isnt that likely that i will be driving a semi as a lineman.
