Truck Driving Schools in Arizona

Below are the available truck driving school programs you can find in the state of Arizona. To become licensed as a Class A driver you will need to pass the written CDL knowledge exam and driving skill test. Your training will teach you how to inspect your vehicle, couple tractor trailers, and drive a semi-truck. During your instruction you will practice driving in a variety of road conditions and practice specific skills. A few of these are braking, parking, turning, backing-up, and operating equipment.

To qualify to take the tests you will need to be 18 years of age and have a current driver’s license from Arizona. Applicants will need to pass a vision test, physical exam, and have a criminal background test conducted.
