Most truck drivers learn to drive at a truck driving school. The first thing a driver will learn are the things needed to pass the written test to get their truck driving permit. The school will teach the driver how a truck operates, what the different components of a truck are, and how to conduct a proper pre-trip inspection. The driver will learn rules of the road, learn about federal law, weight and length limitations, bridge laws and how to maintain a logbook legally. A driver will also learn to properly shift and clutch and how to maneuver a truck in forward and reverse. A driver will learn how to straight-line back, back while turning, how to parallel park, and learn about trailer off-tracking. There are many things a driver will need to learn, but many of these will be learned on the job after the driver has received a Class A license and is working as a driver.
