    LOL, It's Future Truckers of America. Driver Solutions is now using this school from what I understand. I guess its cheaper to contract out to another school instead of continuously sending people halfway across the country on the grey dog only to send them back home in the first few days. The good thing is its not that far away from me (only 4 hrs), which is close for me, I grew up in NYC so a four hour trip to go a cpl hundred miles isnt bad, up there it might take me 4 hours to go only 40 miles in friday night rush hour traffic. The other good thing is I wont have to transfer my licence back over once i get it and get back home. I have to call tuesday morning to my driver agent to make sure i can lock my spot in the 1/23 class. Will keep you posted as to how the school goes.

    Seeing as I will be heading to USA after I get my cdl, does anyone have a copy of the policies and procedures manual for drivers on their computer in like a pdf format? Thouht i could maybe get a jump on reading it so I will be ahead of the game when I get to orientation. Thanks in advance

    No Bear, Im not prior military, my son is in the Marine Corps though, just worked for the State of North Carolina Dept. of Corrections as a Sergeant in the max custody 23 hrs lock down Unit. I am proud of my son and it makes me feel good and I know he feels good when people find out he is in the Corps and shake his had and sincerely thank him for his service. I alway tell people, whether you are for or against the war, we should not treat our men and women of the Armed Forces bad because of our views of governmental policies. I personally thank any current or prior military for their service to this country. And as my son often reminds people, there is no such thing as an EX Marine!!! LOL.

    Working for the State or government in any capacity makes you want to be prepared. LOL, they are always throwing curve balls at you every chance they get and change rules as much as some people change their underwear!!!! And you can never forget the old .... HURRY UP AND WAIT!!!!
