    I started school someone in north Ga. So far its been a great experience. The Instructors and good and this place is laid back and that they are like a family. They want you to succeed and learn. I literally took my test (Thu) yesterday morning. We started the book just before lunch. I scored very high on the test at the DDS. I drove construction vehicles around in my previous construction career. I think this will be a breeze, biggest issue is , speed, braking and alertness. I have a new respect for Drivers as this is not as easy as it seems. I did have to study and learn! I want to know and be how the best drivers do it! It's been a great week so far. When class commences or with the Instructor permission I will put the name of the school at a later date!

    Wait, you live in Tampa and you're going to a CDL school in north GA?
    You know there's Roadmaster in Tampa and PTech (the school I went to) in St. Pete?

    I changed my license to GA since most companies are not hiring out of FL unless its a bottom feeder.
