37 years old, too late in life to get Class A CDL?

I started at 50......so, you got a ways to go to catch up with me. Good luck

 

I started at 31 (almost 39 now).... heard all this blah, blah, blah about "New Blood"..... Don't let other people tell ya what you can and can't do. If you want to; you will.

 

I got mine at 25, but it really don't matter what age. In PA, I came across a driver that was 70 and in his rookie year. So you're a young un lol

 

Make sure they are an accredited school and not a 7k joke. Job placement assistance, good reviews. What state are you in?

 

You need to find out what schools are acceptable to your prospective employers. Generally speaking, if one is acceptable to a mega, (Schneider, Swift), they'll be acceptable to all. Just don't go to "Bob's Truck driving School" and think you're in. You may be not.
It's kind of important.
Also, look to see if there are any state sponsored classes that you can do for free.
If you'll let us know (roughly) where you live, we might be able to help you more.
@Chinatown is going to be your hook up.
Good luck

OMG, YES, you are way too old, in fact, social security is knocking on your door, as well as the nursing homes, that WANT that SS monthly check..!!!!!

 

I started at age 56.

Latest gig: hauling fuel (hazmat tanker).

The REAL question here is: are you OLD ENOUGH (between the ears)?

You need lots of maturity, & good judgement...to be a real winner in the big-rig world.
