Question:
Hello,
Has any one hear of these associations?
PTDI ( Professional Truck Driver Institute ) based in the States
TTSAO ( Truck Training Schools Association of Ontario ) in Ontario, Canada
What to you think for getting advice or ratings with various truck driving schools?
Thanks
Answer:
I went to a PTDI, nothing special they cover a lil more than the typical mill other than that all your learning is going to come off the job. They teach you a lil trip planning, map reading, logs, adjust brakes, and to pass your test and get out. Plus you get hounded everyday by a OTR Mega-Carrier recruiter on how you will make the most money with their company .
Answer:
"adjust brakes" ?
Did you mean PTDI schools teach you how to check push rods and slack adjusters ??
The reason you get assailed with driving job offers might be due to PTDI putting out confidential information to ALL the Tom, Dick & Harry trucking companies ??The only time you can be sure that the grass is greener on the other side, is when you're under it.
