Here at West las Vegas High School we use a 2003 international semi truck, to help students learn how to operate semi trucks in the field.
WLVHS CDL Class
Mr. Tobias Medina
Tobias Medina states,
CDL licensing options provides a wide range of job opportunities related to the CDL license job opportunity and how the pay rate and salary increase and how that operates.
Starting with the job opportunity we have one particular student who is graduating with CDL and the military is reaching out to him for a truck/artillery transport.
There is also a handful of jobs you can do with a CDL such as being Coca-Cola driver or a Walmart product hauler/transporter.
The advantage of driving for a company is, eventually an investment you will get to be a co-owner of the truck and get even 20% more than your normal salary or if you own your own truck you will almost double the amount of salary of just delivering.
The trucking industry have faced that truck stops have greasy and fat foods, so they have come up with a program for drivers to not get so many health issues such as putting exercise products in the cab of the trucks.
Mr. Medina got his CDL in 1994, since then he has had a wide range of jobs, such as driving for the state of New Mexico and many more, he even employed himself using his own 18 wheeler truck.
