    I have a class B lisences and was wondering if a company or school would help me get my class A. I've looked up Pam and Prime and They have a training school if I read the information right. I'm not 21 yet but I will be next year. Just trying to get a head start on what I need to do before I turn 21.

    As long as you have a DOT medical card they will train you. Study for your Class-A permit though; you will at the least need the permit to get started with the training program. You can even get the CDL-A and drive within the state before reaching 21. Some drivers under 21 do that then they are better prepared for running long haul when they do reach 21. Some under 21 start out doing local deliveries or household goods moving deliveries within the state.

    Study for the endorsements for more opportunities and better pay : tanker/hazmat/doubles/triples.

    The good money is in flatbed or tanker. The practice tests for the Class-A and endorsements are accessed on the opening page of this website.
