Worst trucking driving school. Class is too big 18 student. One to two tries to learn the maneuvers. For example, this Saturday I was there for 10 hours did not even drive. If you fail twice on them your out and own over $8000. It's a money trap.
I passed through this school. But overall experience was bad. There was a teacher there that didn't know what she was doing most of the time( I hear she no longer works there) The Trucks are all pretty beat down and old from all the practice that goes on in the training lot. Tend to break down in the middle of training/testing. For example one of the trucks power steering went out during a class test. Which made half of the class fail due to the turning radius being limited. Rainy days are kinda brutal as we all just sit outside in the rain until break comes around. The whole lot gets flooded. (I know it's good training for real life trucking tho.) There's 2 Manual Trucks (2010-2016 VNL VOLVO) and the rest are automatic Frieghtliner(2013-2018). I belive they give you an option to learn in the manual Trucks. But those Trucks are mostly for private students. The classes are large so you'll have to wait a while before you actually get a turn to practice, test or do something with a truck. You do get DMV tested on site when you are done with classes.. Make sure you speak loudly or else you might fail. I also have pictures of the trucks. I think there's a total of 10 or 11 trucks. 2 are the manuals
Today I completed my CDL test. Brent Card and Barbara in the office are the best people you could ever meet. As you can imagine this was a stressful morning and their professional and friendly demeanor was greatly appreciated. I cant wait to start my career with Swift Transportation! So far my experience has been outstanding! Id recommend this company to anyone looking to start a career in the trucking business.
So far I can see how great they are at safety and how important it is to make sure everyone is doing the safest possible while training and on the road. All of the staff have been tremendously helpful an extremely patient
This was not a good experience, the trucks are old, and not the same truck you'll test in. Far too many students, impossible to get enough time to get comfortable with the maneuvers. Bright spot many of the instructors are cool and want to help, but are handicapped by the school and equipment and swifts super large classes .
