    Hello everyone. I'm switching careers to become a truck driver. I'm in the Pittsburgh area and want to go to a school in the beginning of the year. I haven't contacted a school yet but from the research I've done All State Career looks like it might be my choice. Has anyone gone there? Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    All-State Career is good; many drivers on this forum attended that school.
    What type driving are you interested in?
    Do you want local/regional/OTR?

    Scroll to the top of this page & click on "CDL Practice Tests" , then memorize as much as you can. Take the actual tests at the DMV when you get your CDL Permit that you'll need for cdl school.
