This is a great alternative if you NEED a job to get some cash in your pocket. One thing to consider about getting your CDL, and this is a biggie. You have to take the driving portion of the test in the vehicle you will be driving while using your CDL. Hence if you take the combination Vehicle test (for driving a tractor Trailer) your Driving Portion has to be done in a combination vehicle. Advantage of using a school is that the school provides the vehicle, and the instructors are generally certified by the state to perform the driving test.
