HELP, i passed my cdl road test, went to the dmv to get my license and they told me i need 300 hours of supervised driving training. i only have 160 hours on my name because of the driving school i went to. does anyone have an idea how to get the 140 hours left for me to get my license?
Get all your stuff from that driving school if there’s any guarantee from them to have you ready then they owe you some hours
if their website says “GUARANTEED TO OBTAIN CDL” should i discuss that with them?
What state are you in? In Arkansas if you pass your test you get your shit
unfortunately i live in new york
Iv never heard of this. I went to a school where I did 6 hours of driving and passed the road test. My license came in the mail a couple weeks later
I would like to look at that school
AFAIK you only need 160 hours?
yes 160 hours left for me to get my license
Find a company, maybe a dump truck company, and work with them. Tell them you need 140 more hours, you'll work as a cdl trainee, then work full time once you get your license. Show them that you passed the road test already, just need the hours. They should be able to sign off on the remaining hours.
will try to do that, thanks for the information
Put it applications with beverage companies like Coca cola and Pepsi.
will try and do that
i got my class b in new york 3 years ago with 30 hours driving with a school i’m not sure what the requirement was then but i know things have changed this year. i went on the dmv website and found
Are you 18-20. The 300 hours of seat time is for the Intrastate Young Adult CDL program. You either need to pay more to get the seat time at a driving school or get picked up at a company somewhere to get more driving time. The seat time is not required to be under a school.
I don't know about New York but in Florida it's very common for DMV employees to give bad information about CDLs. Maybe try a different DMV office?
That really sucks. In Michigan where I got mine, we only needed 160 hours so when we were done with class, we had our cdl. I'd definitely talk to the driving school that you went to and see if they will work with you.
