    I guess its only straight to a regular license without having a permit first. I didn't know that.

    ok, so I can actually go for the CDL asap,but some companies wont hire me/train me ,till i have held at least the lower class for 0ne year? I plan to go to community school and pay my own way so, then i can go get some experience with a less fussy company till my year is done.my work record is virtually nil having been a housewife for so many years.
    thats my next problem!

    Why not just go get your regular license now, so that you have it if needed?

    You have to know that we drive on the Right side of the road and color does not have a U in it. And the song is "America" not "God Save the Queen".

    Indiana requires a year for the car license before you can get a CDL. also have to be 18.

    Florida DMV site doesn't say any certain length of time to have the car license before you can get a CDL though, but it does say you have to have the car license.
