Truck Driving School in Mississippi

Create your own career opportunities by training to be a truck driver. At Roadmaster Drivers School in Mississippi, you can prepare to receive your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) in about one month. Learn how to get a CDL in Mississippi from our expert training team at a location near you.

How to Get a CDL in Mississippi

To earn a CDL license in Mississippi, you must follow the federal and state requirements outlined by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Motor Carrier Safety Division. These include the following requirements:

  • Hold a valid Mississippi driver’s license
  • Submit proof of residency and U.S. citizenship or lawful status
  • Be at least 21 years old for interstate driving
  • Provide proof of passing a medical and physical test
  • Undergo a background test

Once you pass these basic requirements, it’s time to enroll in a CDL training program. Apply for a Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP) to get behind the wheel of a tractor-trailer and practice your maneuvering and driving skills.

You need to have a CLP for at least 14 days before taking your CDL. However, just having a CLP isn’t enough to gain the skills you need to ace the exam. New Federal regulations require all new CDL applicants to receive minimum training from a registered training provider.  For that, you need a dedicated team of trainers at a reputable driving school.

Finally, you need to pass the CDL exam. This includes pre-trip inspection, basic control skills, and road driving. At Roadmaster truck driver school in Mississippi, you can prepare for all of these areas and build the confidence you need to earn your Class A CDL.

  • Hooking and unhooking practice: Be sure you know how to perform these essential skills before you earn your Class A CDL in Mississippi.
  • Trip planning: Know how to remain compliant with Department of Transportation laws regulating trip planning and logging. Explore map reading skills to streamline your first route.
