    "Obtain a permit in your state. Drive on the road 3-4 weeks with a CDL instructor." This is what it says on the Prime website. I live in NY and was wondering from somone who has been through prime cdl school is do you have to drive down to their training center? I live in NY and I am wondering how I have to get to their training center. If I take a car do I leave my car there for months??

    Dont bother posting about which company I am getting this from I just need to know whats in between obtain a permit then driving on the road thanks

    If they accept you into their program they will send you there by greyhound. There are a lot of good threads on this subject here and also if you go to there website you will get all the info you need.

    As vegaskid mentioned, scoot on over to the Prime forum... there's a zillion threads in there, like this one (hint)...

    As to your question- they provide you with a bus ticket down to Springfield. That's a long trip, so you could either drive your car or get an airplane ticket. They will reimburse you the cost of the bus ticket if you provide your own transportation- just let your recruiter know that you plan to do this. BTW, there is a secure parking lot at the terminal if you drive your car down there.
