    Hey everyone looks like I am finally ready to head to Indy to start classes at C1 for my CDL. Seems like this process has taken for ever to make something happen. I'm ready for the classes to get started and get rolling. I hope and pray that when I get out with my trainer I get a desent person.

    Just keep an open mind. Take in as much information as you can. The motel they put you in is a rat trap and it is 2 students to a room. If you luck out and get DC or Bernie then you will do ok. The first week is classroom. Once you hit the range and road, practice as much as you can. Remember the school is there for 1 reason only and that is to get you to pass the test and get your CDL. You will not learn much more than what is needed to pass the state tests. Good Luck and tell them Sippinwhiskey said HI! :)

    So let me get this str8. I get my CDL's there correct? Then goto your home state, and have them transfer over to your home state? Will you have to do a road test in your home state? Or will they just change it over?

    You will get your CDL in IN, go to your home state and get it transferred. I know NY does not require additional road testing to transfer but other states might. I know MA requires proof of 2 years of experience before you can transfer w/out road test. Your best option is to check with your home state DMV **EDIT** I did some additional research and for WV you do not need to take another road test. You will need the DOT long form physical not the little wallet one though.

    Good Luck!
