How to Get a Class A CDL in Dallas, TX

You need to know how to get a CDL in Dallas before you can legally drive a tractor-trailer in Texas. Thankfully, you don’t have to go far to prepare for your new career. A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) opens up opportunities for local, regional, and over-the-road routes as a professional driver.

A CDL license requires the following tests:

  • Knowledge tests
    • General knowledge
    • Texas Commercial Rules
    • Air brake
    • Combination vehicles
    • Any endorsements you wish to add
  • Driving tests
    • Vehicle inspection
    • Basic Control Skills
    • Road Test
  • Drug Test
  • Vision test
  • Medical test

Our highly-rated truck driving school in Dallas prepares you for both knowledge and driving tests. You must be at least 21 years old to apply for an interstate CDL. Reach out if you require any medical assistance in performing the basic training duties. In some cases, you may be eligible for medical exemptions.

You also need to be a Texas resident, and have proof of American citizenship or evidence of a lawful presence, your Social Security number, a valid Texas driver’s license, and proof of identity in order to apply for a CDL.

You may not need to wait until your CDL training in Dallas is complete to get behind the wheel of a tractor-trailer in Texas. Apply for a Commercial Learner Permit (CLP) to start driving and practicing your on- and off-the-road skills with an instructor. Our seasoned staff at Roadmaster Drivers School can help you navigate this process and learn what you can safely and responsibly do with your CLP.
