Help. I have my cdl permit

Pretty sure your dad would have to be in the passenger seat while you're driving.

 

More experienced please correct me.

If you are on a permit the licensed operator is the supervising driver. Until you get yours you would be driving under his time. He is always to be alert and monitoring your driving and habits not in the bunk while you log miles.

This should be short and quick time with a veteran showing you the ropes. Get it done and take your test.

 

he has to be a passenger and logging as on duty not driving.

just go get a road test with his truck.

 

Probably the bigger problem is his insurance would not allow it or it would expensive. Some of the mega trucking companies are self insured for the first 1 million dollars. So any accidents or truck damage from new drivers they pay themselves.

 

When i lived in va. A life time ago. I couldn't leave the state on my learners permit. I don't knoe of its the same every where. Also are you over 21?

The others are correct, you’re on his time only with permit. Insurance was not an issue with my guy as he just hired my son as a “trainee”, though my son has a spotless driving record. He’s licensed and on his own this past 7 days.
