CDL Safety Tips – Pre Trip Inspection Tip

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

For those of you that are new to the trucking industry, we want to point out things that are unique and that you may not be aware of.  As an example, trucks designed to haul semi trailers do not have license plates on the rear of the truck as do other vehicles.  The state license bureau only issues a plate for the front of a semi “tractor”. 

The license plates on semi trailers are also unique as they do not have license plate tabs that expire on a yearly basis as do other plates.  The plates for semi trailers are one time, life time plates.  For more information check out this video:

CDL Truck Driver Testimonial

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Craig Furlong

Craig F. from Savage MN already had a Class B license but was laid off from his local delivery job.  He came to Interstate so he could get licensed for the big rigs.

Thank you for the experience here with Interstate Truck Driving School.  Between the years of experience of the instructors and the in-depth topics covered in the classroom, this seems to be the best program around.  I really appreciated the patience as I was learning how to shift the 10 speed and 13 speed trucks.  You guys are the Best!!  Thank you.

Thank you Craig.  It was a pleasure to have you around with your positive “can do” attitude.  We are certain you will be successful at your new position.
