Driver Solutions...Little Rock, Ar

well little update. This is my 2nd week and we been driving alot on the road and on the pad. All the instructors are great and friendly. The facilities are okay. We have 4 students in a 12 x 12 room... Oh well getting us ready for the truck live I guess... Hey Chad what company are you with again?

Working for USA

 

well i be in little rock on the 7th so the rooms r small what about class sizes and truck time

 

Well I just got back from school late last night. Here is my review of the school and training.

(Monday)--The first day your in class for 12 hours studing to take your permit test Tuesday. You will take practice tests. If you study Egears you will have no problem. You will learn to log hours also.

(Tuesday) -- You drive down to the DMV office and paid $50 for the test. Then you go take your test. You have to take 3 different test. If you dont pass all three you go back the next day.

(wednesday) we were on the driving pad. Doing stright line backing.

After that you are either on the road or on the pad. You have to learn you PTI is a 108 steps...

The overall the school is good. The rooms have 2-4 guys in them some of the rooms(if you call them that) should have 1 or 2..

All the instructors are very helpful. I had Willie for the road and greg for the pad. You get an hour each day for lunch and 2 15 minute breaks...

make sure you bring pillows and sleepbag or blankets... Walmart is like 10 minutes down the road.

 

So when are you going for orientation in Van Buren??
Glad you got your license...Congrats.

 

Thank you. I go the 14th I took a week between, my daugthers birthday is the 9th so wanted to be home for that.. So how many weeks you have left with your trainer? Have you been home since?

 

Havent been home but I'm in van buren now waiting on my 2nd trainer. I have about 8 days left. Wife came to visit while I wait, so that was awesome. Also she had to bring my license because my temp expired, and they wanted me to go home and get it.

 

so 8 days left how many days have you been on the road now? I know they say 4-6 weeks.

 

2 weeks, plus the week of orientation=3weeks

That's where the 6 weeks come in is the orientation and time between trainers.

 

Well thats cool.. My wife and kids said they would come up if I had a day or two waiting for trainers. So they putting you up in Hotel while you were in training and waiting for a trainer?
