C1's Truck Driver Training Program
Classroom
Range
Street
To comply with the standards of The Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1986, C1’s truck driver training program consists of both classroom and behind the wheel training. In the classroom, future professional truck drivers learn about the procedures and techniques to safely operated a tractor trailer. Truck drivers must also be aware of the laws that govern operating a commercial motor vehicle and proper log book practices. Classroom instruction at C1 Truck Driver Training includes practical instruction on map reading and trip planning for the professional truck driver.
Behind the wheel time consists of just that – time spent behind the wheel of a late model tractor trailer combination applying the driving techniques discussed in the classroom. Student truck drivers learn and master the turning, backing and shifting skills on a large, private driving range. Once a student driver has gained the experience and confidence of the driving range skills, the student and driving instructor proceed with street training to polish and hone the student’s skills in real world situations.
All this training is conducted in preparation of the student’s CDL skills test where the future truck driver must demonstrate his knowledge and driving skills in presence of a state-certified CDL examiner.
