    Thank you KC.. it's going to be an experience .. since I have 10 years under my belt.. but old years..lol..and there will be ppl there that have not even set in a seat..let alone have million miles in the seat . even if I would have kept my cdl.. after all these years not driving.. it would have been worthless anyway.... But I will keep posting.. an let everyone know how the school is..an what we are covering.. I know the first week is studying for the permit ..

    I told one of the employees about this site.. he said he will have to check it out...

    yes the first 3 weeks is just sitting in the classroom going over the stuff for the permit. Then the 4th week is trip planning, accident reporting, and defensive driving. Then you get the next 6 weeks is broken up between 7 road days (on the road driving) and 9 site days (doing your backing maneuvers) were you are broken up to drive either mon-wed or thrurs-sat.
