National Tractor Trailer School
Buffalo, NY
I went here, and it fully prepared me to be on the open road by myself. I can't say enough good things about this place. The standard of learning is way above any other trucking school that I have heard of throughout the country, having talked to other truckers after graduating. -National Tractor Trailer School Graduate
