Just got my cdl, Camille is so nice and encouraging to the students! She is an exceptional manager and knows her job very well, she resolved several issues and ensured my time at 160 was as smooth as it could be and when I struggled with the tests she was very motivational and helped me alot, 160 needs more people like her!
I must say this is a awesome place to be trained and get your cdl Ms Benita and the instructors there were very helpful in me retaining my cdl very professional and willing to help and prepare you for cdl test. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to be trained to be a cdl driver.
I can't begin to say enough good things about the Instructors at this school. Coming from someone whose first time in a truck that big felt like a spaceship. Or my closest thought to one. To being able to parallel park a 53ft. trailer!! They are amazing. I recommend the night classes. It's a longer class but it's worth it. It's not a daycare so they won't hold your hand. But if you want it they are guaranteed to steer you in the right direction. To everyone who was involved Mr. Price, Webb, Nelson, Rob, and Mr. Greg, God bless you all. Y'all are changing lives! The best decision I ever made hands down. P.S. Mr Price don't play about them logs!! Keep em right!!
