Awesome staff and instructors

Cds staff were very attentive to my individual needs. Very flexible schedule, and an amazing environment to learn in. I recommend this school for anyone looking to earn a cdl.

Great team of leadership

I’ve had a CDL for 10 years in the past, my company sent me to 160 to get my license again and I learned things about the trucking industry and being a safer driver out in the road that I didn’t know about. The trainers there are very experienced and are there to help you succeed in your goal of getting you CDL. Their experience has changed the way I look at the commercial driver experience. Go check them out!!

Awesome instructors

The instructors at the Saint Cloud mn location are amazing there patient and knowledgeable in what they teach. The downside for me was there isn’t enough time to learn to drive a manual truck. And the branch manager joe is very tough to get ahold of and doesn’t communicate with you if a date changes like the start date or exam.

I’ve gained the skills to pay the bills!

Initially, I was apprehensive about starting CDL training during the middle of a pandemic but 160 Driving Academy quickly put me ease when I saw all of the precautions that were taken including daily temperature checks, mandatory masks and wiping down the vehicles after each driver. When it came to the yard instructions, I worked primarily with Roxana and Lance. Both gave me great insight on how to operate a commercial motor vehicle and essential backing techniques, so much so that I was offered a position with a company as an Intermodal driver (lots of backing). My only critique or suggestions is to dump the parallel parking and teach a 45 or 90 degree backing. All in all it was a GREAT experience and I would definitely recommend anyone to 160 Driving Academy.

Fresno 160

The Fresno 160 guys Raul, Miguel, and Tim are all really good guys and very very helpful. You can ask them anything about the industry and they will let you know. More importantly they do everything they can to help you out and make sure you absolutely get all your skills and pre-trip down to get your license at the DMV. They really do everything in their power to make sure you get your license and are successful!

160 Experience

I had an amazing experience. My instructor Dave Simmons was by far the best instructor Ive could've had. I appreciate the time he has taken to explain everything yet be a very funny and friendly person making it that much easier to pass. I also need to thank Scott Wuebbels for staying in touch and helping trough into the yard but also answer any question or issues I had. 160 is a great school and company and I appreciate everything they have done for me in my next step in life. Thank You!
