One of the schools didn't even have a classroom. They pointed to a dead school bus in the back of a building and said, that's the school. Unqualified CDL drivers have killed or injured way to many people. If you can't read English, how do you read speed limit signs, highway warning signs, etc.. Several years ago, one of those unqualified drivers, that didn't speak/read English, didn't understand the safety signs telling him to down shift to low gear on I-70. Including signs for the runaway truck ramps. By the time he got down to the populated areas, his brakes were gone. He hit a backup in rush hour and couldn't stop. He plowed into several stopped cars. I can't remember how many were injured or, if anyone died. My husband, son, and a close family friend, were all CDL licensed truck drivers. All of them went through training and had to pass a written and driving test to get their CDL's. None of are still driving anymore due to personal reasons.

Im a heavy wrecker driver. I have sadly been to several fatalities that were the direct result of non English speaking cdl drivers. In one instance the man that was hit was in over 300 pieces. If u don't think knowing the signs and understanding them important you should have to meet the many families whose lives are ruined because of it. These are dangerous machines that are not easily stopped. Its hard enough knowing the signs and language and rules of each state. There are families on the road and one mistake could literally end an entire families existence. I have seen it

Well if they would show up at just about any truck stop they’d find a ton of them. I drive. You almost need a translator to talk to people at any of these truck stops.

Feds visit Detroit; vow crackdown on truckers who can't speak English. During a visit to Detroit, Trump officials said non-English speaking truck drivers are hurting Americans, and sanctuary cities are partly to blame

Common Sense: Have the trucking companies help teach English and train drivers to the standards. They can get Green cards or permissible paperwork that makes them legal. Offer jobs to Citizens first and offer training to disadvantaged American citizens first.

Common sense would be all driving schools should be in English, commercial or not. It’s pretty simple. What language are our road signs in ?

This is about safety, accountability, and protecting everyone on America’s roads. If someone can’t meet the basic English-proficiency requirements to safely operate a commercial truck, they shouldn’t be behind the wheel. Glad to see the rules being enforced. 🇺🇸🚛

Why does the post say illegals? The video says nothing about that. And with the language, I don’t the rules but I guess my question is how good of english do you need? Broken english has nothing to do with driving skill.
