Hey everyone and Welcome to our podcast, Caution: Wide Right, Today we are going to talk about getting into trucking, how to prepare for CDL training, learn a bit about flatbed and specialized loads, and more.
With me is one of our own CDL instructors here at CNS Driver Training Center, where we offer 1-on-1 CDL training in Lititz, PA. Dave comes with over 10 years of experience driving trucks, specifically flatbeds and step decks for specialized loads.
Before being a trainer here, he worked for the best specialized load carrier in the US – RMC Transportation – where he drove and trained new drivers, teaching them the ropes of the flatbed industry! Dave, welcome to the podcast!
