Okay it's finally time for my to get my CDL (Commercial Drivers License) because now my boss requires it as I'm a heavy equipment operator however I use to pay my friend to haul my excavator to job sites for me. but he recently got into an accident and I honestly have no experience driving a semi-truck yet a lone a flat bed semi... how hard is it to drive one and reverse one? I'm nervous but heard from my friend that it was easy just took awhile because of the 8-hour classes + refresher classes after you take breaks from trucking.but I don't know how to drive semi-trucks! so I don't know if I will be able to get my CDL (Class A) are there schools that can teach me?
You will need to go to school. If you know how to operate heavy equipment then it should be easy.
My brother got his CDL for a gas company by doing it a local class. Just search online and find a class near you. He had absolutely 0 experience driving anything but a car. I think it will cost a couple grand but its worth it, people with their CDL are above and beyond everyone else!
yahoo truck driving school in your area. what's the time limit on getting the cdl because you will have to take the tests which there are 3 combination.air brake and general knowledge at the dmv to get a permit then go through the school which will take some time
