Western Truck School - West Sacramento, CA

If you went to court, look at your county of arrest court document records. If its a big county, its on there; and you can pay $300 to get it off, but it will still have thousands of private-company data-trace queries recorded already which cannot be errased from criminal records for any amount of money.

Its not a real big deal from the sound of it. I'd be worried more about Mexicans phasing your job out in the very near future, which their lack of citizenship is NOT a barrier at all!

 

My H 6 has nothing on it (clean ), but it's only for the past 10 years.

 

I think it is the H10 that goes back.

 

Does anyone have any knowledge of Western Truck Driving's San Diego school? I am thinking about a trucking career, but am not sure how I want to start. As far as I can find out, none of the colleges here offer training. After all, this is not exactly a trucking hub. Swift and c r england advertise paid training in the local online classifides, but after reading the posts here on them, I think I would be a lot better off scrapping up the tuition for a school on my own and then seeing what job I could find from there.

 

Hi SailorSteve - I'm looking at Western in San Diego, also. Did you find anything out? It'll either be that or United. My hubby's going to ROP, but they're so in demand, they do it by a lottery and I need to get my license by the time he's done in June so we can be hired together.

 

There were several people in my class at Desert Truck Driving School in Sparks Nevada who were from the Sacramento California area. They checked out the Western program and said it wasn't nearly worth the money, so they went out of state to Nevada to be trained.

If I had done better research, I wouldn't have gone to Western Truck School in Sacramento, Ca. First of all I was promised extensive training for taking my permit test. Never happened, I studied on my own to pass it. Everything is rush, rush, rush. Not all students learn at the same pace and to put a student in a situation that required more training, it not only is dangerous, but the student loses his confidence in his abilities, which makes even harder the next time. When a student asks for more individual instruction, he is most likely ingnored. Hey! We are paying you, not you paying us. GET A CLUE!. And as far as the tractors and trailers are concerned, they are pieces of crap that should have been sent to truck heaven a long time ago. The Werner truck is nice, but hard to learn on, especially when the intructor is yelling at you for grinding a few gears when double clutching. I mean, it is training....right? Ok, enough venting....
