Truck Driving Behind the Wheel Course
The Behind-the-Wheel Course is specially designed truck driver training for those students that are looking to save some money and already possess a Class "A" commercial driver's permit or license. This course is very similar to the Four Week Course; however it is 120 hours and does not include the classroom portion of training.
The entire training is hands on, behind-the-wheel training. Students will review:
- Pre-trip examination
- Backing and docking techniques
- Defensive driving techniques
- City and highway driving and how it relates to DOT safety rules and regulations
- Up-shifting and down-shifting
- Emergency procedures
- Hooking and unhooking of trailers
- Training in a variety of trucks
- Invaluable critiques and guidance from our professional instructors.
