    It's through the Missouri driver license office in Springfield. Do get your permit before you come to PSD... it puts you a step ahead in getting everything else done, and takes about a ton of stress off.

    Call your local drivers license office, and make sure.

    Most states, all you need is your license, you may need proof of current address, and enough studying of your state's CDL license manual to pass the general, combination vehicle, and airbrake tests.

    I think. It's been awhile, and the miles tend to jar unpleasant memories from the ol' noggin! :biggrin_2552:

    If N.C. is anything like Iowa, you'll need to take those 3 tests. I ran into a bit of a snag today, because they wanted to see my medical card. I was under the impression that would be taken care of at orientation. Should I have gone out and gotten one?

    I think that is also true for any company you go to.
