    I called them. They don't have the program. That site is probably outdated. There's also couple more entries for truck driving schools in Temecula, but they don't exist.

    I don't know if Roehl Transport hires in your area, but you can check. They're the only company that actually pays you while you're attending their school. They pay $500.00 weekly and it starts the day you arrive for school. I know they hire in Arizona, so maybe also in Southern California.

    At this point.... You should probably go back to the original school and continue practicing to drive.

    I know that sounds crazy, but that's probably the only place that's going to let you pay for a few more hours of practice.

    Why pay for a whole new school... What part of the test are you failing??

    Hubby said if you didn't even get to the part of the test where you get to turn the key and drive, you just need to practice and practice the air brakes and pre trip in order from beginning to end until you get it perfect.

    I recorded myself doing the pretrip over and over again until I got it 100%... This way my nerves didn't interfere with success.

    I failed the drive part. Past everything else. Not going back there. Besides i moved far in the mid-time, why would I give my hard earned money to someone who doesn't deserve it? With only about 2.5 hrs of practice driving, I went to take the test in congested, narrow SoCal city streets. I never felt comfortable for that part. Not to mention a two week inactivity prior to my test.

    Hmmm.... I see your point. I drove 2 hours a day for 3-4 days a week for 3 weeks. Then more because I couldn't get scheduled for the test.

    Then practiced before I had to take a drive for an interview.

    That school sucks.

    To answer our question, no, they don't accept from CA. I just received a response from the recruiter.
