    Also, no, I didn't have a bad experience at the CC Driving School I attended. So, fortunately I have nothing "bad" to add ;-)

    I was very pleased with the CDL school I attended. It was Itawamba Community College Commercial Driver Training in Tupelo, MS. Four week course, only 3 students per class. A week in the classroom, a week on the skills course where each student had his/her own day cab Volvo & 48' or 53' van trailer, then two weeks driving on the road. I felt it was a good school while I was there, but once I got to training at McElroy, talked with the other trainees about their school experiences, I KNEW I'd gone to a good school! I was amazed at how much better I'd been prepared than the other guys in training with me. Very thankful for ICC & Greg, my instructor. Heck, he still calls just to check to see how things are going for me.
     
    NavigatorWife and fireba11 Thank this.

    I had when to T.d.i it was a good school learned a lot. But there was only so much that could show you in 3 weeks. You learn even more when you get out on the road.
     
    NavigatorWife Thanks this.
