Why not...6-16-2014 RDTC!!

Don't worry. You're going to go through the entire thing at gary. It's nice to go through the book and know the info moderately well so you can speak with some intelligence at the class. Oh, and you don't have to remember it all. You just have to know when you don't know what you're doing and check the book.

 

Yes, Truckers Atlas provided to you. Along with several other materials. You'll get more STUFF at each new phase.

So pack really light.

 

Just got mine today... SO don't buy one!! Class is going great, always a few bumps in the road, but as long as you apply what the instructor is teaching you...You can do this!! Ive enjoyed every minute of it...both the good and bad days. Only a few more days to go... time sure has flown by!

 

Start learning to read ALL SIGNS!! No it is not a dry erase Atlas. Know your CDL testing book... It all will help you. Keep up with the CDL practice test... You will have PLENTY to read once you get here. But the best part of class is the hands on. I learn better that way, and one last thing... remember to breathe. You will be overwhelmed but the instructors are really awesome with any questions you may have or help if you are struggling with something. And everyone has struggled with something!
Bottom line you are a student and are there to learn, give yourself a break. I am learning to do just that.

 

I really wish I went through Roehls driving school, it sounds more thorough than the one I attended. I'll be starting Phase 1 of their training at the end of june. I've been keeping tabs on threads from roehl drivers since last year, it really does seem like a great place to start a career

I'm actually interested int he Dairyland option as well, and same with me as long as I make at least $500/week I'll be happy. Let me know how you like that fleet, theres virtually nothing about it on this forum, all I have to go off is what the website and recruiter say...

 

I can't say enough wonderful things about the people at Roehl. You aren't just a number. They are there for you every step of the way. I thank God for Brian and hanging in there with me encouraging me and motivating me when I kept doubting myself. Of course fellow classmates were awesome as well. I hope we all keep in touch as they are all a bunch of great guys. Couldn't of made it thru without Jim and Psy especially. Kept me laughing and uplifted even when I didn't want to. LOL
I hole heartedly recommend Roehl School to anyone who wants to learn to drive and be safe on the road!
And to those people in my life that said I couldn't do this..."WATCH MY TAIL LIGHTS HEAD OVER THE HORIZON!"
