I enjoyed every bit of my experience at ROADMASTER! From the time I applied til a few days ago! First of all my advisor Samuel is so awesome & he made it do what it do for me to join the school. Mrs Kathy the office manager is so sweet she’s literally smiling every day and did whatever she could to help me. The school manager Tommy is strictly about his business. His main focus is making sure everyone is on time & making sure everyone graduate! He was good to me! ALL of my instructors were great & helpful in their own way. Trey was my PTI instructor he was so cool & taught me everything I needed to know about the truck. He made sure I knew my PTI before I moved on to maneuvers. Anthony helped me with maneuvers & made me feel great every time I finished a maneuver. He always told me good job & had faith in me. Craig made me look at everything different & made my maneuvers much easier! Craig & Anthony both made it fun on the pad while learning. It was never a dull moment with them both….. KB is so sweet he helped me polish up my maneuvers! NEEKO that’s my guy lol he was my main on the road instructor.. he taught me everything straight from the book. He also made me look at everything about driving different I even drive my own car different. He made me so more comfortable & not nervous at all. He made sure I did my in cab every time I drove so when I did test it was so easy! I only was on the road with Anthony once and it was great. Anthony also made me feel comfortable with driving & taught me things I didn’t know! ALAN is the examiner.. ppl say he looks mean lol but he’s really a sweetheart & strictly about business too. I can honestly say ROADMASTER is the best school around & their staff care about their students. You won’t regret it 🥳🥳 Thank you all again so much!!

EDIT: as I drive my intermodal container around Dallas and drive past Roadmaster, I’m thankful for the training I received there 💜

This is an EXCELLENT school. I just finished Texas' required 160 hours at this school (2018). From my first visit when I talked to the recruiter (Taj), to the secretary and financial people (Kathy and Lina), to the upper management (Billy and Richard) to the instructor in the classroom (Steve), to the instructors outside in the trucks...the staff is professional and cares deeply for each person. I have gained a deep respect for the instructors and their endless patience (Vic, Lance, Stan, Cameron, Terry, Robert, Joe, Mark, Jeff, Neto, Wynn, and Kimmy).

You may think I am exaggerating. But, I went to another trucking school in central Texas before this one. I know what a poorly run school looks like. Where the majority do not pass the state driving exam, the students are made fun of, cut down, called names and feel stuck and hopeless. The people that I know who did get their CDL from the terrible school in central Texas, all had a friend or relative help them learn the backing maneuvers so they could pass the state CDL drive test. And, they had to go through failing the exam several times first. In addition, that school did not have the students keep driving logs, which are required by law.

So, I KNOW what a fantastic school Roadmaster is, since I have a comparison of another driving school.

Roadmaster is the only place to go, if you want to be more than a steering-wheel-holder...and you want to be a safe trucker for life!

If you've read this far, the horrid school to avoid is ATDS in Elm Mott, Tx. Do yourself a favor, and go to Roadmaster, nobody comes even close second. -

This is a great, positive environment for learning in. I went into it apprehensive about everything and feeling insecure and day one all of that was gone. My class and the class ahead of us were all so so supportive and each one there to cheer you on with each new thing we had to learn like PTI and ultimately maneuvers and driving. For me personally, I utilize access I had to each and every instructor out there and I would recommend anyone do the same. They all really do want you to succeed and are willing to help you if you just ask and take what you learn and apply it. Shoutout to both Anthonys for being direct, and not holding back anything and pushing me to just do it. To Eric who taught me from the start, thanks for being kind and patient. Sherman is your man for learning adjustments going backwards and Craig is your guy for adjustments going forwards. Trey the most stoic PTI guy and knows his stuff inside and out and again super patient with me. KB thank you for being calm and centered and giving me room to relax and breathe. Also for the arm workout when you and Anthony knew I needed dedicated time to do nothing but make turns lol I didn’t hit or kiss any curbs in the end there so thank you both! Special thanks to Tommy who runs the show but always took time to listen to my issues in skills and helping me try different things to solve it. Claudia got swapped around in positions so I didn’t have her long but I want to say thanks for the pep talks and high fives when I did get to see you. Good experience over all and would recommend, it’s work and it’s on you but stay focused and keep at it is my advice. -

The program was simple and the instructors were all very knowledgeable. Niko was very helpful with learning the pre-trip inspection, he kept me laughing and gave me a lot of information about the trucking industry. Jim was the first instructor that I drove with and he laid down the foundation for driving semi trucks (how to turn, approach, etc.). Don was able to help me clean up my turns (closing my gaps when turning) and at one point walked me over to a corner and explained spacing and how much feet was required for a semi to turn. Ethan laid the foundation down for parking and was very knowledgeable. He walked me through the process step by step. Bryan (who I almost gave a heart attack to because I pulled the emergency parking brake while going 5 miles an hour) helped me to clean up my parking and had a great since of humor. When I was dealing with a little frustration Terry was there to remind me that it is a learning process, he also worked with me on parking. By the time I reached Bill I was ready for a pre driving exam. Bill reviewed all of my driving skills and was able to give me positive feedback on the areas I needed improvement on. Each instructor had their own special way of teaching and it was helpful in working with all of them. The only minor issue was standing outside in the heat which made me a little sick.

THE W.

Road Master Driving School is by far the best driving school I have ever attended.
From the moment I walked through the doors, I was welcomed with open arms and made to feel like part of a family.
The staff at Road Master truly went above and beyond to ensure that my experience was positive and enriching.

I had the pleasure of learning in the classroom with Ms.
Claudia, who was an incredible instructor.
Despite English not being my first language, she was patient and understanding, going out of her way to ensure that I understood the material.
The atmosphere in the classroom was always supportive and encouraging, making it a joy to come to class.

Overall, my time at Road Master Driving School was nothing short of amazing.
I walked away with not only the skills to become a confident and safe driver but also with fond memories of the wonderful people I met along the way.
I highly recommend Road Master to anyone looking to learn how to drive in a warm and welcoming environment. -

I just passed today and I am so excited and could not have done it without the help of Roadmaster. All the instructors helped me get it from Nikko on PTI the wizard helping me get it and giving me the courage to continue. Ethan the maneuvers guru who helped me do all my maneuvers and told me to man up and you got this. Jim for always believing in me and telling me to focus and just get it done. Terry for teaching me straight line backing and giving me life advice and driving experience. Don for giving me driving experience and talking real to me like I was his son. Bill telling me to man up and get it when I was frustrated. Josh who always thought it was in my head and knowing I could do this and with all these super guys I made it. If I can do it you can, so come here believe in yourself and do not give up. Thank you everyone at Roadmaster love you guys thanks for my new career and got it... -

I just Graduated a few days ago.
Great School. Great Benefits. I recommend to anyone wants to get their CDL. ⬇️⬇️

Advice for anyone considering joining.
Before Joining 🚨🚨⬇️
1. STUDY “CDL PREP” APP for Permit, before going to School.
- You will barely have time to study while you’re in school. Many fail the first time because the lack of study time we have. I didn’t fail the first time because I studied for the Permit test before School.

2. Study Pre- Trip Inspection before you go to School.
- This is not as important as #1 but You’ll save your self a lot of stress because you’ll learn quicker pass the inspection test with ease and early.
- You want to learn how to park and drive as quickly as possible but before that you need to pass an inspection test evaluation.

3. Download MTS. Truck Driving Skills Stimulator video game.
- This game helped me a lot before going school.

Good luck 👍🏽 -

Very knowledgable and helpful. Great experience,! I would highly recommend Roadmaster Driving School to anyone thinking about going to truck driving school. The instructors are very helpful. Niko was amazing in helping me to learn the PTI. All of the instructors are very patient and are there to help you in any way they can. I struggled with the parallel parking. It just wasn’t “clicking” for me. Every instructor helped me so much. But I have to say that the one who I clicked with was Brian. He spent all day with me the day before my CDL test and I got it!! Jim, Ethan, Don, Terry, Bill, thank you for you our expertise! And I can’t forget about Steve, the classroom instructor. I thank you ALL! Besides the HOT, long days out on the pad every day, it was a very good experience. I love you all for your hard work, patience, and dedication. -

Trust the process and keep faith. Stay positive and trust the process. Everyone here wants to see you succeed from the recruiters, to admin, to the examiners & to the BEST trainers a CDL school can have. I can’t show enough gratitude. The trainers all want to see you do well and succeed TRUST IN THEIR STRATEGY AND FIND THE BEAT OF YOUR OWN DRUM IN THE PROCESS. Road Master is highly recommended and the students you train with will eventually feel like family. It feels good when everyone wants you to win! The main thing to say to yourself is “One and Done!” Obtaining your CDL is only one step into the trucking industry but is one of the most valuable lessons a beginner should learn from. Blessings and success to everyone I met and thank you💕🦾 -

I highly recommend Roadmaster!! I graduated yesterday 1-10-2023. I started school on 12-5-2022. The school manager Tommy love and take his job very serious and if you have any questions or even running behind let Tommy know he will work with you. The pad and road staff are phenomenal they all know about how to operate a truck safely and will teach you step by step how to do so. My instructor was Craig west, Craig was the best hands down he set a good foundation for me the first day of working with him. Craig taught me adjustment in my maneuvers and it stuck in my mind the rest of the time I was at Roadmaster!

Time to go make some money!!!! -

My experience here was very good at Roadmaster. Marissa the dean is super chill but still very professional. Claudia is e very good teacher as well very professional but sturn and a little bit more old school which is good. All the instructors on the pad are great they are laid back but they do their job and are very patient with the students and they show us the manuevers very well. They do take the GI Bill which i did use. So they do get alot of veterans here and there. The overall atmosphere of this school is good. I never felt uneasy or any bad vibes. If you want to go to a truck driving school pick Roadmaster. You won’t regret it. -

Nicholas J.

I worked the most with Anthony, who worked a lot with me on the skill maneuvers, always had a positive attitude. Niko's tip about turning away from the reference cone helped me start doing the offset maneuver consistently. Jim and Ethan helped me fix gaps with my straight backing. Anthony and Jim helped me a lot to learn the parallel maneuver. Terry and Jim are great road trainers, and Terry stressed the importance of constantly checking traffic, and checking my front trailer tire by the apex of the curb.

I am grateful to have had great, patient trainers, and good classmates that shared tips to help me get my cdl license. -

I found Roadmaster driving school after researching many truck companies and schools that just did not quite have either a good rep or enough positive reviews. I finished the program with no issues , the staff and trainers are the best in my opinion. Bria and Mrs Kathy made in boarding super easy and welcoming. Steve, Niko, Ethan, Terry, Tommy and Anthony all are top notch trainers. They made passing a breeze. All I had to do was pay attention. They will make sure that you understand what you need to know not only to pass but give you knowledge to take with you in the road. Thanks Roadmaster for the amazing experience! -

I went in not knowing anything about trucking. All the instructors are there to help you understand the basics of how the tractor and trailer work. It’s very fast paced but it’s well worth it in the end. The princess of the instructors (Nicko) will hammer pti until you start saying it in your sleep. Highly recommend it for all ends of the spectrum. Whether you don’t know anything or know everything. Best part is that they’ll help you all the way until you’re out on the road with a company. From the beginning in getting registered, to getting hired on they’re with you every step of the way. PTI TILL YOU DIE -

I had a great experience at roadmaster Dallas. I was very happy about the experience and the instructors I had were great as was the school manager Josh and ms.kathy in the front office was the best and always hard at work for us. Honestly all the instructors are great and I took everything that Ethan,Jim,Bill,Don,Steve,Brian,Nicko and Terry taught me and made it my own. You will get you to where you wanna be if you listen and are receptive. I now get to reap the reward as I start my new career with Werner Enterprises.

This is the best training school that you can attend. All the instructors definitely care about you getting your CDL. They will work one on one with you to help better your skills and give you key points to focus on instead of leading you blind. Josh May is the best manager because he actually listens and helps with anything you need. Favorite instructor was Ethan because he is one of the funniest people there plus he knows tons a great restaurants. Highly recommended attending. Even though I graduated I still want to go back again. -
