    I'm thinking of helping people get there cdl's and training them how to drive and the ends and out of trucking for a price. not a school but one on one help. love to here some feed back from pros and also those looking to get there cdl's. I will have a truck for them to use and train in, also a trailer.

    First thing that comes to my mind is; I wonder how much insurance would cost to do that?

    Do you have some private land on which to teach the basic handling skills of a tractor trailer, or an alternative site lease, or similar? Something else to consider if you have not already.

    Will you be hauling freight while you train them? It seems unlikely that one student at a time could subsidize the cost of the equipment, insurance, fuel, and maintenance unless you are also generating revenue while training.

    don't know yet! that's why I chose a weekend to ask you guys and ladies for your input. I know most of you might be setting around just waiting to give some great advice on this. there are people out there that need help getting back in to trucking, and some just need a chance.
