    Reckless and DUI are 2 of the biggest issues with carriers and their insurance companies.

    And it sounds to me like you’re looking at some good schools. An honest person won’t take your money, just because you offer it to them.

    Keep looking around. You might find something or someone.

    I went to a local vocational school that had a CDL class. Made it really easy. They had stuff on the computer which made taking the written portion extremely easy. But Im in Oklahoma.

    Even if you get into a school chances of getting hired are low. You are better off using the next year or two to save money to pay cash for a school
