CDL-A + Passenger Training

Combines Class A With Passenger Endorsement

You’re interested in the transportation industry but aren’t sure whether truck or bus driving is right for you. United Truck Driving School combines both Class A CDL with a Passenger Endorsement into one course. Classroom and behind-the-wheel instruction prepare students to pass their written California CDL Exam and skills test. By the end of training, you will successfully complete truck driver training, driving both big rigs and passenger buses.

Drive Semi Truck, Straight Truck or Bus

CDL-A + Passenger Training prepares students for entry-level employment as Professional Truck Drivers and Bus Drivers in either an over-the-road (OTR) or local setting. Truckers who hold a CDL-A + Passenger can operate any legal combination of vehicles of Class A or B trucks and any Class B passenger vehicle. This course will prepare students to earn the following endorsements: Air brakes, Doubles, Triples, Tanker, Hazmat, and Passenger.

Behind-the-wheel training is taught on late-model, industry-standard equipment. Students are taught the skills necessary to safely operate a Kenworth conventional tractor with a full-sized trailer, and Passenger training is taught using a full-sized passenger bus.

United Truck Driving School provides students with job placement assistance. We work closely with major carriers who are actively seeking our graduates for hire. Head over to our Job Placement Assistance page to learn more!

“This school is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! I learned all of the basics from the book and then proceeded with actual hands-on drive time behind the wheel. Everything from shifting to reverse, offset parking, and traffic, both city and interstate driving! Learning in the BIG GIRL! Full sleeper with the 48’ trailer. Everyone is so patient and guides you the whole way! From initial processing to the very end, they are with you every step of the way! Thanks for the experience to all involved!”

– Shaun K.
