Exceptional
My name is Delfino. Jennifer Guerrero explained all the options a to me while I was looking to get my CDL unfortunately I can’t start until November because of work situation but I’m glad she was able to explain how the classes work. She was awesome and I am grateful for the smooth experience that was provided.
Unacceptable
My nephew is still trying to get his CDL! He took the 4 week training in July his permit has expired already he's had to reschedule his test 5 times now still nothing no explanation!!! Due to the TRUCKS THAT AREN'T IN PROPER WORKING ORDER!
Great course
The instructors and staff are amazing, knowledgeable, and professional. They really took the time to provide me with the knowledge and information to obtain my state Class A CDL. Bar none the best instructors.
Cdl a training/licence
Ivan was great very helpful. Class was easy for me with a learning disability
They never gave up on me.
I am without a doubt, their ultimate victory story. When I came in, I had almost nothing. I was on unemployment, I was having my utilities shut off every month, I was out of hope, out of luck, and out of hope.... But I wanted this. I wanted it so bad that I was laying up at night unable to sleep hoping for a miracle. Then the American Job Center got me a grant and sent me to the Mineral Wells, WV location. I was a good student. I studied hard, and I did well enough but... I found out that I have the worst test anxiety that any of the instructors had ever seen. They saw me crushing through the practice exercises with almost little effort, but... when it came time to take that test, all of it, and I mean *all* of it was forgotten. I would get in my head. I would panic. And I failed that CDL test. A *lot.* The standard for the company was three chances before they stop paying for it and you have to pay for it yourself. It took me *six* tries to finally get it right. I finally did it today and I found out that the reason why this sixth chance happened was because the lead instructor Chad Davis, just like me, doesn't have an ounce of quit in his body. He fought for me to have every chance I took and he wouldn't let the higher ups cut me loose even if they wanted to, because he knew that the reason I was failing was because I didn't just want this; I desperately needed it and the anxiety was tearing me apart mentally. And today I passed. And despite him not being there when I did, he was having the other instructors on duty giving him the play by play of how I was doing like a big brother. He called me afterwards, and said that he never fought so hard for a student before, and he was proud that I proved him right in that conviction. So if you want a school that will treat you like a family, and step up to bat for you in ways that will astound you and blow your mind? Come to 160 Trucking Academy. They don't just make drivers. They save lives and make you family.

My truck driving school experience was great because all the instructors are very Friendly and very knowledgeable and through their teaching skills I was able to successfully obtain my class A CDL . The whole 160 team is great and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to get their CDL . 160 academy is top notch.
Amazing expirience
The instructors here are excellent. The personal level of commitment really surprised me. All the info provided about the trucking industry was very detailed. Marta helped me along my whole process and had information for all my questions. Highly recommend this location.
Great experience!!
First of all I want to say thank you to all the instructors and staff! You guys are all amazing and great at what you do! My first week I worked with Keyon and LC, they gave me the foundation and fundamentals I needed to learn and build on my driving skills with the manual transmission. My second and third week I worked with Jacob, Erin, Keyon, LC and Kyle learning my backing maneuvers (only so many because it just didn’t click for me, lol) Kyle took a different approach and used something I was familiar with to help me understand and then it clicked! My third and fourth week I got to polish up my skills, again, I worked with Kyle and he was so patient in helping with my downshifting and on the road maneuvering in traffic. He made me feel comfortable and not so anxious. And, I can’t forget Penny, even though I didn’t work with her directly she checked on me from time to time and offered to help in areas I was struggling. All in all it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend 160 Driving Academy in Flint to anyone looking to obtain their CDL!
