    I recently separated from my truck driving school. I was supposed to test wednesday. Im almost there. I feel I needed more experience backing. I told my instructors I didn't feel prepared for backing part of the test. They didn't care. An excused was made up for me to excused from the school. Now I just want a little more backing experience and to take the test. The problem I'm running into is many or all training schools want me to start from the beginning with all fees included. Just a little practice backing and I'm there. HELP any input would be greatly appreciated!

    You should have tested anyway. Now since you quit, you have to start from day one.
    Where is your location? Some food service companies hire drivers with only a permit and they team with an experienced driver.

    I did not quit I was excused from the school I disagreed with more driving when I needed more backing practice. I was comfortable driving. United States Truck driving school in Colorado Springs/Pueblo. Thank you so much for your input! Great info!

    Do you live near a developed area with companies that operate fleets?

    What was the "made up excuse" they used to expel you?

    How did you express your desire to change the training schedule?

    I started with the instructors.. I let them know I felt comfortable with my driving to include shifting. I needed more backing practice I already failed the test once. They said I had to drive. I knew I wasn't ready and I didnt want fail twice. Instructor insisted and I went over his head and spoke with facility manager. That was interrupted as insubordination. Facility manager said my schooling was over. Terrible
