Rhode Island has a fairly straightforward process for applicants that want to earn a commercial driver's license. You must first decide which type of license you want to earn—a Class A, Class B, or Class C driver's license. You may find it helpful to attend a truck driving training course for your license class. In a two-to-eight week training course, you can learn about driving laws, basic driving techniques, and how to maneuver a truck on the road.
When you're ready to begin the licensing process, you should to your local Rhode Island Division of Motor Vehicles department to take the required tests. The first test is a written test that covers everything found in the driver's manual. Upon passing this test, you can take your skills test.
The skills test includes three parts, and your driving class should prepare you for all three parts. When you pass the skills test, you may receive a CDL that is valid for five years.
The prospect of starting a career in a completely new field can be a bit overwhelming, which is why we often recommend that you join a local trucking association. The Rhode Island Trucking Association is the most prominent organization in the state.
Joining this group can help you quickly get a foothold in the state's trucking industry. You can learn about driving laws, compliance updates, and job openings. Other membership benefits include educational seminars, dental insurance, and discounted DOT supplies.
