The first step towards learning truck driving and getting your CDL is to go to your local DMV office and take the test to get your CDL "permit". You sould study the CDL driver's manual before taking this test. Next, once you have your CDL permit, you must drive a truck with someone that already has their CDL. Once you have driven the required amount of time (no more than six months, as most CDL permits expire in six months) you can take the driving skills portion of the exam. The best way to acquire the the driving time and skills is to join a Truck Driving School in your area.
