Atlanta Truck Driving School

Fantastic experience: ATL Truck Driving school is a great school. Straight to the point. Pretrip info is just like the test and they have online access and videos for you study 24/7. 2 hr classes that work around your schedule and They have one on one training which makes it easier and are very thorough in meneuvers and driving and the instructors teach you everthing you need to know to get your liscense. And I got my liscence!

Fantastic experience: This truck driving school is the best, made a great effort to ensure that I succeed on my journey of obtaining my CDL. The one on one hands on training helped me a lot and is the reason I was able to pass my test the first time. Thank you all for being such a great school. I will recommend anyone to you all.

Fantastic experience: I can say this is the best cdl school, they are with you until the end so you can pass the exam, the instructors are good really good they explain step by step how to do everything, fransheca is in the office helping you as a registrant and being able to have all the information you need, I recommend them.

Fantastic experience: ATDS walks you through the entire process. You can move at your own pace, and the behind the wheel training you do is exactly what you do on the test. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Very good school they work with my schedule and made it possible for Me to get my cdl. My Instructor was very good and instruction where clear made learning easy as possible.

Fantastic experience: Lots of parking. You can turn Around before entering if you change your mind. On left when going past blue beacon is small dirt pull off maybe a couple bob tails and one trailer could park for free. The paid parking is all concrete.

Fantastic experience: I recently completed my CDL training at Atlanta Truck Driving School, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, the school exceeded my expectations in every way. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, with a genuine passion for teaching. They provided clear, step-by-step guidance and were always patient, no matter how many questions I had. Their real-world insights and tips were invaluable, giving me the confidence I needed to feel fully prepared for both the written and driving exams. The training vehicles were well-maintained and representative of what you’d actually encounter on the road, which really helped me get comfortable behind the wheel. The school’s curriculum was comprehensive, covering everything from safety protocols to hands-on driving techniques. I appreciated the balance between classroom instruction and practical, on-the-road experience. One thing that stood out to me was the staff’s dedication to each student’s success. They offer flexible scheduling options, which made it easier for me to fit classes into my busy life. Plus, their job placement assistance is top-notch, with strong connections to reputable trucking companies. Overall, Atlanta Truck Driving School provides an outstanding education for anyone looking to enter the trucking industry. The supportive environment, expert instruction, and thorough training program make it the best choice for aspiring truck drivers. I highly recommend it to anyone serious about getting their CDL and starting a rewarding career on the road.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere for learning at my own pace!

Fantastic experience: Good school , good instructors , you have to really study in order to pass.

Fantastic experience: The staff at Atlanta Driving School were very helpful and patient to answer all my questions both in person, by text, and by email as i completed my video online course and the in-vehicle training. The app they prepared with customized photos of my vehicle so I could practice the pre-trip inspection test on my own was invaluable. They walked me through the whole process from start to finish - even scheduling my test with DDS.

Fantastic experience: I found this school to take my manual exam. I trained for 10+ hours and had good trainers. I failed the test once due to running over the curb and had to test again. As a driver who is already OTR they worked with me in getting me in and out as soon as possible. I'm glad I went thru the program to get my manual restriction off my CDL. Now I have more options and as a driver those are always good. Give them a call and see how they can help.

Fantastic experience: The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly and lessons are simple and easy to learn from.

Fantastic experience: Legitimate and professional. If you're like me, getting a CDL for the first time, you've seen that the new ELDT requirements have brought all kinds of shady "approved trainers" out of the woodwork. USE A LEGIT COMPANY LIKE ATLANTA TRUCK DRIVING SCHOOL. Don't risk your money and certification on a "company" with no website, no business phone, and exorbitant prices. The staff at Atlanta Truck Driving School are top-notch professionals. I had questions, they had answers. They worked with me to get the final certifications I needed to complete my CDL. I can't say enough good things about these folks; fair prices, and great customer service. Edit: Check out any negative review they have, there is always a response from the staff setting the record straight.

Positive experience: Overall good course, and the price was right compared to other schools... You will be on your own with the online portion and apps, but they are simple to use and easy to navigate. My only critique would be the way they communicate at times. I received a long text telling me not to ask the instructor about my progress after working on some of the maneuvers. If I'm not where I should be, I wanted to know, so I'm going to ask. Other than that, I would recommend them... I also have to say thanks to Francesca who works in the office. She got me all the info I requested, ASAP!

Fantastic experience: I obtained my Class A CDL today, thanks to the great team at ATDS! 1 on 1 training with a highly experienced instructor, and professionalism on every level! Follow the instructions, and STUDY as required- you will reach your goal! Thanks for everything!- Ronnie

Negative experience: It's a terrible school....and terrible people....they definitely tell it very bad about pre trip inspection and then they don't help.....I gave 3500 dollars and I had to go to another school in Florida ....do yourself a favor and don't go to this school...

Fantastic experience: They work with you and helped me get my cdl on my first try and worked with scheduling my classes before my exam so I would be more fresh and in the mode. Best school ever!

Fantastic experience: I just finished my exam very well last week. Now I got my CDL and fulfilled my dream. I had a bad experience at another school but when I went to school This is everything different. Very effective one-on-one training program, 34 hours of solo driving, driving skills improve significantly, if you are a new driver with no previous driving experience, you can buy additional driving hours (this other schools never tell you), you don't have to wait in line for your turn to drive. Ms. Francesca is very cute and enthusiastic. If English is your problem, Ms. Francesca is willing to listen to you and try to talk slowly to explain to you clearly. Mr. Roberto is the owner of the school but he is very enthusiastic and approachable. Mr. Joan and Mr. Hoze are the two people who teach you how to drive every day. They are also very enthusiastic and experienced, but also a bit fastidious and nagging. I had a very good experience studying at this school. I also recommend my friends to study at this school because of the unique training program here. I have looked at over 10 schools in GA, but this is the only school where you study alone with one truck and one teacher.

Positive experience: The atlanta truck driving school was good for flexibility of schedule but it does require a lot of self learning and you musttt pick up things quickly. It worked well for me for the most part due to my time schedule and i was able to go two/ three times a week and pick up things very easily. One downside tho is the lack of hands on pre trip education. You are pretty much on your own to study and walk the truck yourself. So i recommend recording yourself doing a full pre trip and just listening to it everyday for memory and i also study one other person on YouTube who was a DOT officer on pre trip to get it down. The other downside for me was the space used in school for the alley docking was not the same space for the test because the space for pull up is much smaller. It was definitely devastating when i failed the test the first time because i couldn’t get it done without multiple pull ups, but in school i passed it everytime with flying colors. The last thing i wish they did was a recap of everything you learned and what exactly to expect on test day as the last final class with a run through of pre trip included. That would probably help a lot with the pass ratings. but All in all, i passed my cdl retest today and all is well. The school works well for flexiblity

Fantastic experience: I rcommand this School to everybody who wants to learn how drive the truck

Fantastic experience: I’m a father of 2 and work 50 hrs a week and this school was exactly what I needed to get my CDL! The price was very affordable and scheduled in a manageable manner. Francesca and Juan, my instructor, were great in allowing me to set and adjust my class schedules while patient and excellent in class instructions. Robert, the owner, was very accommodating even through a family loss I experienced, and he is extremely professional. I passed on my first attempt in large part bc of my instructor Juan’s patience and clear teaching style. You will have to hold yourself accountable and study the material for the pre trip inspection- I drew part F the whole truck- for the pre trip but had no problems with it bc they made the tractor available to me for practice and the course material was absolutely clear and understandable. I’d recommend this school to anybody because they give you every opportunity to be successful! Robert Alvarez

Fantastic experience: I am ecstatic I went this morning I took the test I nailed it. Thank you for the whole stuff, Francesca she's always delightful those instructors know what they doing. If you are looking for a school to get your CDL and a flexible schedule for one-on-one training Atlanta Truck Driving is where to go.

Positive experience: I attended the ATDS in 2K12. I was pleased with the then (available) 2hr. one on one instruction. It is a very effect technique and I speak with an informed opinion as a technical college instructor. Upon completion of the training I successfully passed my CDL exam on the 1st attempt. At the end of the day as it relates to negative opinions, everyone is entitled to their opinion...but not their own facts. IMO and experience, ATDS is a good CDL training program.

Positive experience: I recommend this School, the staff is very helpful, one and done! I never would have believed I was capable of passing, believe me when I tell you, I struggled in the beginning I’m very proud of myself, I had doubts, but I’m glad I didn’t give up, thanks to family, friends and especially Francesca the secretary who practically, in one hand manages every thing on a day-to-day basis at the school, she was a big motivator in keeping me going. so overall, if you are looking for a good affordable one on one trucking school, that’s flexible with your schedule. I would certainly recommend.

Fantastic experience: This is the best school you will ever attend if you looking for the best Driving School in Atlanta. The Customer Service is Great , the Instructors are very professionals, they know to teach very well. The most important thing I like about Atlanta Truck Driving School is that Instructors are very patients with Students. If you have someone who truly want to get in the Truck Industry please go here and learn.

Fantastic experience: I just referred someone to this school today. I’m constantly referring people to this school. I received my CDL through this school in 2012. Let me tell you this school is the BEST. Roberto gave me one on one training and when I was in the classroom preparing for the written test it was at my pace. Never pressured to hurry up. They was always available for any questions I had. Also, they give me the opportunity to come to the school anytime to practice my pre-trip on a truck if it wasn’t being used. The only way you fail is YOU didn’t put your best efforts to past cause they provided all the tools. When I went to Jackson for the drivers test the DMV lady told me I handled the truck better then the four 4 men that was there. I gave all the credit to my trainer Roberto who was standing outside waiting on me to complete the test. Oh! And they was willing to help me find a job as new driver. Thank you Roberto and Atlanta Truck Driving School. 10 years later…. I’m still driving and have my own truck with a clean driving record all because of you!

Positive experience: Roberto and all his staff are very professional. They teach you everything you need to know to pass the test. I got my CDL Class A.

Negative experience: Please please please! Never try to go at this school they don’t know how to teach! Their teachers are very rude, for everything thing they asking for money they are scammers!!! They owner is unprofessional person if you ask to please explain this part again for me, he asking for $250 for an hour to explain for you Even they can’t speak English so how could they teach or explain something and soon I will stand in front of their gate with a white board which I will write please don’t come to this school they are scammers

Fantastic experience: Thank you guys all for helping me get my CDL best of luck!!

Negative experience: You Complete DDS. To Fast. And Have to Wait.(10) Weeks or More to have a Road Test, Pre-trip. Not Briefingly. Organized?

Positive experience: Currently attending and the study guide was perfect. Literally aced the DMV tests within minutes. Roberto and the new lady worker behind the desk(forgot her name) have been very attentive. Juan was a great instructor today, who made sure every detail he asked me to follow was in fact followed correctly while driving/parking. Had to update. This school is the bare basics and is only a necessity if you don’t have a truck. The failure rate is high at this school, but some of it should be blamed on students not studying and some on their DDS location who have certain people who are not looking to pass you for any reason. Make sure you study every exact word as written or you will fail.

Fantastic experience: I like the aggressive responses from the owner on negative reviews. Most companies use scripted responses that do not offer any usable information. I can understand why some people think a business owner should not contradict a negative review. However, I have gleaned a great deal about this company from their rebuttals and am far more interested in learning more about them because of their responses. I have reached out and am waiting to hear back.

Fantastic experience: These guys are great,they know what they are doing,they worked with me through all adversity, they will work with your schedule & follow through with you until the goal is met,I highly recommend this school for your commercial drivers license training & experience

Negative experience: Stay away from this school they are shady people .Spend your money with a repeatable School not these people

Negative experience: Went to this school last April teachers told me I would never get my CDL and the job wasn’t for me fast forward a year later I have my CDL and have been driving for 6 months … all the negative reviews you see on here are true, avoid this school at all cost if you want your CDL

Fantastic experience: I have a class B cdl and would like to upgrade to a class A. what is the cost and what do I have to do?

Fantastic experience: Strongly recommend! Very professional! Instructors teach thoroughly and always willing to help. They were always flexible with my schedule. I passed on my first try thanks to these guys!

Fantastic experience: Great school, honest people, and great with working out with your personal schedule. Both teachers knew exactly what material was needed to pass. Thanks to them I was able to get my Class A license on my first try. I highly recommend this school for anyone who's looking for an affordable/great experience.

Negative experience: I enrolled in this school a couple months ago because on it’s flexibility and one- on- one training. I was in the process of doing my behind the wheel training, got sick where I have to stop training, after recovery I called the school, “ WHICH NO ONE NEVER PICKED UP”!!! left a voice message stating that I would like to resume training the owner replied in a text stating I have to wait for ten weeks knowing that my permit will expired in 3 months on top of that at telling me I have to pay an extra $500 by April 15 which is ridiculous!!! FYI THIS OWNER IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!!!!I I would not recommend this school to anyone.

Negative experience: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY WITH THIS PLACE. I have no idea why this is considered a school. It’s literally a guy with a few trucks and his brother helping. The structure of the class is not going to help you get your Cdl at all. You pay per hour for classes and they have too many ppl to even get you on the schedule. This place should be shut down it is a complete scam. They don’t tell you up front that they don’t have enough staff. You will pay your money and then there is no room to test or even have a class for months. They only have a 1 or 2 days a week to train you for 2 hours a day. There is no way to learn like that for the DOT exam. Thousands of dollars down the drain and still after a year I have not been able to take my text with these ppl.

Negative experience: Wow I Was definitely looking for a decent CDL school but whoever this is responding to these reviews is a verified clown! Like wow!!

Negative experience: I have called this location for all most a month no answer and I have left 3 messages with no one to call back

Fantastic experience: Good morning do anyone ever answer the phone. I'm trying to get enrolling information thanks

Negative experience: This is a school that does not honor the promise. This school stole $1,600. They were not trained in anything. When I spoke to the principal, he told me to go to court, and everything told me I wanted more money. This is a school for stealing You have nothing but lies, you from day one, you and the coach are talking about more money and proof that you are someone who lied, why did you send me a message that you want to delete the comment

Fantastic experience: WOW I just got done reading all those negative reviews and yall probably shouldn't be drivers anyways tbh, I graduated here back 2017. They catered around MY schedule, they made sure my gear shifting was smooth, and I tell you what I consider myself a top tier driver because of where I got my foundation from and that's with them. So I will be taking my brother there this year. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL. These guys helped me open so many doors that I never knew would be possible! Thank you guys! This review is overdue but better late than never.

Negative experience: I went to the school earlier this year and I will say this.. Don’t expect to get your CDL within 3-4 months and that’s if you are perfect.. they will only schedule you two days a week.. which if you don’t meet their expectations on a section you will have to continue on that part until THEY feel you can move forward.. Which is taking up some of your tuition money.. so at the end you will have to pay extra. And if you don’t pass the test first time which MOST DONOT you will not retest until about 6 weeks later at the earliest.. and you can forget so much in waiting 6 weeks.. the teachers are very nice I will say that but the school was a bit disappointing when it came to my time of trying to finish and hopefully get to working soon.. plus the alley dock practice at the school is NO WAY the same as it is at the DMV… a guy before told me and I really had to watch videos outside the school before I tested thank God I did.. good luck

Negative experience: Well I was looking for CDL classes for my boyfriend but these reviews are too. Owner sounds like a narcissist. I’ll pass!!

Fantastic experience: Just received my CDL A hard work paid off thank Mr Roberto it was my pleasure doing business with you I had no experience

Negative experience: Unprofessional your comments as a business owner to people opinions are out of this world, it should be unheard of. I dont like the energy you give off as the owner from your comments And im sure others don't neither. Wish the best for your business channel your energy on the positive not negative

Fantastic experience: I did my homework on researching schools. I picked this school because they work around your schedule. I was nervous because of some reviews but I absolutely made the right choice. I was lucky enough to have class with three different instructors who all found different ways to help me grasp where I was struggling. All three were kind, smart and eager to help. I saw in the reviews that some people found some of them hard to understand, I only speak English and had zero problems understanding. I was given hand outs to study for my pre trip with that I memorized. I found it was not difficult to schedule extra time to come in to look at the truck to study for pre trip in person. On the day of the test the truck was set up for me to succeed, I followed the sheets I was given for the pre trip and the steps I was taught in parking. My road test went well because I had been taught what the preceptor was looking for in advance. I pass on my first try with zero previous experience. This was a good school.

Negative experience: One thing's good about that school is the flexible schedule that's the only reason I wasted my time and money. Your instructors made me do things many many times pretending that was not good enough. I am not stupid, I understood as you thought I was not, look at your board as you never paid attention to it before you do your defense. God knows buddy.

Negative experience: The office staff is nice and the school is SLIGHTLY cheaper than the other schools that I was considering.. One on one behind the wheel time, can't really call it training.. You get what you pay for.. There is no Instructor for the "classroom" portion; you are given test material to study, a few short videos (from the 90's I believe) to watch and left to your own devices.. THEY DO NOT TEACH YOU, THEY PROVIDE YOU WITH THE MATERIAL THAT YOU NEED TO PASS THE TEST AT THE DMV.. This includes the behind the wheel time.. If you have never driven a tractor trailer before, this isn't the school for you.. If you have a little experience behind the wheel of a tractor trailer, this school may be perfect for you I need to be taught maneuvers, not just guided through them & that is something that the staff at this school fails to understand.. I definitely regret not paying the extra $1k to attend a school that better suits my needs and I regret ignoring the negative reviews that I read before I signed up for this school.. The syllabus is set up to allot 2hrs to practice maneuvers that other schools allot 3-5 full days (27hrs-45hrs) to practice and learn; so on top of only understanding half of what the instructor is saying through his accent, I feel extremely rushed to learn stuff that I've never done before.. Damn near impossible to learn like that for me, period.. The 100% pass rate that they advertise for the driving exam is AFTER students have failed the driving exam several times.. Again, GREAT SCHOOL FOR PEOPLE WITH PRIOR EXPERIENCE DRIVING TRACTOR TRAILERS.. I wish everyone the best!! **In response to Atlanta Truck Driving School's response.. Your response had NOTHING to do with my situation, AT ALL.. Obvious that you believe that I am a different student.. I wasn't falling behind and you only offer 24hrs of 1 on 1 training, not 34hrs..

Fantastic experience: I NEED HELP WHO DO YOU RECOMMEND?

Fantastic experience: It was awesome I got my cdla last week and I thanks all awesome staff working there they’re professionals,full of knowledge and they guide you perfectly to get your cdla .once again thanks!!!

Fantastic experience: I would like more information on your school. I noticed one comment you mentioned one phone training that got my attention. I have a Class A permit I just need to learn more on the road and shfiting

Negative experience: Hi, i believe you should've gave me enough time during my driving evaluation, after two minutes you stopped the evaluation and charged me $250, i went to another CDL school and they did gave me enough time and a good chance to evaluate my drivivg and they didn't charge me for it, and now i got my CDL license from school that cares about it students success not only their money. I hope this would help you understand my rating, thanks.

Fantastic experience: BEST TRUCK SCHOOL... The team is so good (from the Director, the office, the trainers). The Boss, ALWAYS helpful. He is a honest person. He wants 100% CDL winnerS!! School very clean like new. Manual AND automatic transmission!!! They get a great educational program to learn faster. (I don't want to write here this system, because other schools will copy!!) I drive 2hrs30 to go because I want the BEST, I can't WASTE MY TIME. I need my CDL in January to go back work. It is for my survival. With the COVID19, I worked 5 months!! It is my BEST 2020 DECISION to GO HERE.

Fantastic experience: I have my cdl class a permit and I want to learn how to drive an automatic? How much is the total cost of training for class a? Thanks

Negative experience: Go else where!

Fantastic experience: My first school the best ever thank you Mr Roberto and GOD bless your mom Proud to be your student

Fantastic experience: Roberto and all his staff are very professional. They teach you everything you need to know to pass the test. I got my CDL Class B on my first try. I must add that you are required to do a lot of studying on your own and you won’t pass unless you do that.

Positive experience: Please can somebody gime some info about this school

Positive experience: $3500 for a class A

Fantastic experience: Great Company/School! Definitely worth the money

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Great staff with good rates. Mr. Roberto was very accommodating to my needs. I got my Class B with P endorsement. Once again, thank you and keep up the good work.

Negative experience: I assume they are closed down. I’ve called twice and left voicemail msgs and have yet to receive a call back. If they are open, they have very poor communication for current or potential students.

Fantastic experience: I can only speak in a very positive way about this driving school. Since the beginning I had the opportunity to deal directly with the owner of the school, very honest and sincere, straight to the point. I was new to the trucking industry, never drove a commercial vehicle before and the thing that I found so helpful has been the one on one time with the instructors, which are very capable, patient and experienced. I had no problem in passing the exam for my CDL, the instructors prepared me extremely well. I would recommend the school to anybody, my personal experience has been super positive ++++

Fantastic experience: Nice school...like it

Fantastic experience: Quería saber si dan clases en español

Fantastic experience: Magnifico Instructores Arturo the best!!!

Fantastic experience: I am very satisfied with the quality of training that I received. In no time at all the instructors boosted my confidence behind the wheel and taught me how to reach the highway the right way, safely. If your dream is to get your Class A CDL and have a new rewarding career then I highly recommend Atlanta Truck Driving School .Go for it!

Fantastic experience: I Highly recommend Atlanta Truck Driving School. It is definitely one on one & go in there with the attitude to learn, you will pass. Everybody that works there are Professional People and willing to help you in any way they can, long as you are willing to learn. I am now a Class A Driver thanks to this school. If you make a decision to go to this school ask for Arturo, he was my instructor at the school. They all are very good instructors. Well it's time to start my new career. Be safe & drive safe. Thanks to everybody at Atlanta Truck Driving School, I would not done it without ya'll. David

Fantastic experience: Fierro pariente

Fantastic experience: I can say I have mi CDL because of this school thanks guys... Roberto keep up the good work

Positive experience: I’m looking into getting my CDLs and looking a these reviews... A company/business that wants to bash a person back or talk down on a student is bad business management. I don’t like the way you respond to people that have their own opinion. People going to talk about you regardless of the fact. That don’t mean you have to be unprofessional and talk to them like you don’t have any sense too. I think I’m going with the tech school like shorty said on the reviews.

Fantastic experience: Great team! Have a lot skills to teach every single student.

Fantastic experience: Sensational training, great instructions and information, very knowledgeable and Know exactly what to study for!!!!!! English is a little broken but it forces you to pay attention!!!! I will definitely go back to get my commercial A license. I did get my B license airbrakes passenger endorsement

Fantastic experience: Nice job i take mi cdl last week great job from my instructor and all staff im recomended ask for juan my instructor

Fantastic experience: I'm a student as of today and it's actually a cool school as far as flexibility. I feel the classroom setting could be a little more student/Teacher based but overall I would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Great instructors, mine most of the time was arturo but all are great. I passed on my first time. But all glory be to God :)

Fantastic experience: I recently completed my training with Atlanta Truck Driving and was successful in acquiring my Commercial Drivers License Class A. My experience was well worth time and effort, due to the staff and the knowledge they obtain about Pre-Trip Inspection of vehicle and maneuvering the vehicles is well detailed and clear. For a short program you get your money worth and beyond. I recommend them to the world as a number 1 leading training organization for anyone that is trying to acquire training in the trucking field.

Fantastic experience: Passed Class A CDL first time at DMV. This school is the best "bang for your buck" . 34 hours of behind the wheel one on one instruction. 100% Worth the money.
