“I loved coming here and I really liked all the people. They did a very good job!”

“Great place to learn and the best piece of advice is to act like you know nothing and listen to the Instructors!”

“I can’t imagine that there is a better CDL school in the State than SDIA!”

“I was always nervous driving a semi-truck anywhere inside I-465. All the stoplights and crazy driving sort of scared me; but driving with Lowell gave me comfort and a sense of security. Now, 5 weeks later, it’s a walk in the park.”

“I was looking for a CDL School and I talked to a few over the phone. When I talked to Kathey, I knew this was the school for me and it was the best decision I made. Then I met the great Instructors, Lowell and Fred, and then the new addition of Sergio just made the team even better because he is bilingual. This school is the best option, plus you get to drive one on one with the Instructors on the road.”

“If you are even just thinking about a career in the CMV field, you would be doing yourself a favor to go ahead and at least call/visit SDIA. I promise your search will be over here!”

“I am really very grateful for this opportunity to study, learn and graduate from this school. This place, together with the Staff and Students, has a high level of expectations. It was worth it for all the training time and to experience the dedication of all the Instructors.”

“When I first started driving the truck, I was nervous about driving, but I got more comfortable after learning the basics of driving a manual. I wouldn't have been able to learn without the good Instructors pushing me to achieve my full potential.”

“SDIA is the CDL Training Facility for YOU!”

“You only get one chance and then it's over, so enjoy the climb!”

“SDIA is a fantastic school with great facilitators who have years of accumulated knowledge they pass on to their students. I look forward to the day I can pass that knowledge on myself.”

“I have been a dump-truck driver for 15 years. I have managed to keep a clean driving record, but this class taught me a lot more than I would have thought I could have been taught. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks but if “HE” wants to learn something, you sure can! I would recommend this class to anyone wanting to drive a truck for a living because they teach you how to Drive-Perfect.”

“If you want to learn how to drive a truck the CORRECT way, SDIA is the only school you’ll want to go to!”

“SDIA was a great experience and has helped me become a great Truck Driver!”

“My first day at SDIA I didn’t know anything about a semi-truck or the trucking industry. After 5 weeks I’m still not an expert but I’m leaving with double the knowledge I came with. The teachers and instructors will take their time with you to make sure you understand everything you need to know to pass the test and more. When it comes to the classroom, at first it feels like they’re throwing so much information at you; but after a while, everything will start setting in. I would like to thank the whole staff of SDIA for taking their time and being patient with me. Now, every time someone asks me what CDL school I went to, I will be proud to say SDIA!”

“After I searched thoroughly for CDL driving schools around the Indianapolis area, I picked SDIA, and I have no regrets at all. They have a professional staff. The instructors are all unique and they make sure you understand the lessons taught. I have built such a confidence through their passionate communication. The program is amazing! All students have enough range and road time, which are the most important to practice.”

“Lowell, Devon and Kathey really are the best! I’m so glad I chose SDIA after visiting several other driving schools. The class size is small and that allows you to get plenty of personalized attention.”

“The one-on-one drive time was so helpful. I truly appreciate the organization the school had for training. It all came together and I’m so excited to start my new truck driving career. Thank you so much SDIA!!!”

“I enjoyed the class. My classmates were what helped me get there. The Instructors are different; one was hard and one was laid back, but I think that made the balance in the class. I believe now that I will pass my CDL test, and I am excited for my future. Thanks SDIA!”

“I strongly appreciate everything about the class. Every Instructor (Kathey, Devon, Lowell) felt like family from the start. The facility has a home feel and very comfortable. I will truly miss the class and the people. Also, a shout-out to Denise for keeping the place very clean and comfortable.”

“Safety is always first! You will learn to drive with safety at the forefront of the school, and it’s SDIA’s philosophy. Know you will work for a company that values safety over performance.”

“I really loved the whole program, and all five weeks long it was great. I also would like to thank our instructors for always being there for us and that you always gave us good advice for us to do well in life, in this industry.”

“I enjoyed SDIA and everyone in the program. I learned so much and felt like I was working with family. They helped guide me and the other classmates in a very good direction. They were very helpful finding a career path for me and the other students. I would recommend this class to anyone who is willing to learn and work hard for it.”

“SDIA is a great trucking school from the Instructors to the classroom atmosphere. Over 5 weeks you will be pushed to your max, but that’s how it should be. You become a part of a family when you join SDIA, and I wouldn’t change my decision to come here for anything else.”

“The Instructors cared about and motivated their students, gave more than what was needed, and made sure we had all the necessary tools to pass the exam.”

“SDIA has the finest staff and instructors I’ve ever seen. The knowledge and experience of the instructors is incomparable. I feel confident I have been equipped with the knowledge necessary to have a safe and successful truck driving career.”

“I thought 5 weeks seemed like a long time, but I was wrong. It flew by and was over before I knew it. The team of Instructors are amazing, treat you like family and make sure you leave feeling confident with the knowledge you need to be a safe and professional driver. Thanks for y’all’s time, hospitality and the knowledge!”

“SDIA is the best truck driving school around! Not only do you get great information from the classroom settings, you also get a lot of one-on-one driving with great instructors who take the time to explain what you can improve on and they show you how to do so.”

“I came in not knowing anything about trucking, shifting, backing, or driving on the road. But now, I can do all these things very well… so well that I can help others do so if I had to.”

“From the day I walked in until the day I left, everything went for the best at SDIA. I am glad and grateful for the time, the professionalism, all the opportunity, and the goal of making us quality drivers. Thank you for having me at SDIA!”

“A great place to learn how to drive a truck. No regrets! I feel fortunate to have attended this school. I definitely recommend it!”

“SDIA was a phenomenal experience that taught me everything I needed to know by people who really cared about my success!”

“Class was very professional and direct with the information needed to become a skilled driver who is comfortable behind the wheel. SDIA fully prepares you for your CDL A Test and has a good mix of class and behind the wheel time.”

“This is an excellent school! The Instructors are great. You’re able to get the help you need to learn everything you need to get your CDL and start your career. There is plenty of time on the range and behind-the-wheel to build your confidence.”

“One of the BEST Truck School experiences I had was here at SDIA. This was my 2nd time attempt to receive a CDL and I am very happy I chose SDIA. They have a very high success rate and I see why. This is by far one of the best truck driving schools to attend!”

“I already had my Class A CDL and I didn’t think I needed to come to the school. I felt I already had it, but I really wanted to drive tractor/trailer. So, I gave in and boy was I glad I did. The knowledge I have gained from everyone… especially Lowell, Devon, and Fred, has been great, and I learned things on the road I didn’t know. I owe a very big thank you to Ms Kathey, she is the best. There were days when I felt like giving up and was just tired, and her spirit, kind words and smile gave me hope and a renewed fight. I want to say THANK YOU to SDIA. They could not have picked a better person to head up the program than her.”

“SDIA was overall a great experience! I gained so many different techniques for operating a commercial truck that I hadn’t learned before. The staff was very professional and helpful in all areas.”

“I would like to thank all the teachers and speakers for their wisdom and patience with me, and my fellow students. I think we learned a lot in the past 5 weeks. I am sure this training will follow me in my new and only career. Thank you again!”

“If you value your money and time, go to the SDIA school and you will not be wasting anything. SDIA is worth every penny!”

“The personal attention each student received was more than what I expected and was extremely beneficial. They really want you to be the best!”

“SDIA was an experience of a lifetime! I came out of the school better than when I went in.”

“This was my second driving school with a goal to gain employment with Sodrel Truck Lines. In comparison to the first school, SDIA exceeded my expectations. I feel that SDIA teaches and creates actual skilled, safe drivers. They provide so many resources for your upcoming career to set you up for success immediately! Your safety should be intentional, never accidental. Choose SDIA and you’ll be taught safety, given skills, and presented immediate employment opportunities.”

“I really enjoyed my experience at SDIA, and I appreciate everything I have learned over the 5-weeks. I am truly grateful.”

“Just keep on Truckin!!”

“The SDIA Program and Instructors are awesome! They will work with you and help you learn a valuable skill.”

“SDIA completely exceeded my expectations in every way possible! They teach competence, not just how to pass the test, and that’s why I feel I have a “leg-up” from graduates of other schools.”

“As a start-up business operator, I wanted to go to the best school so I would be trained to the gold standard. I believe SDIA is the best option for someone to not only obtain their CDL, but to also be well trained to be their best self behind the wheel. Shout out to the entire team at SDIA. You did an amazing job! Thank you! SAFETY FIRST!”

“SDIA presented all material in a clear and concise manner. They heightened my safety awareness through the entire process. I loved it!”

“I feel for me SDIA was the BEST choice; and as it turned out, it was. The Instructors were great, and my classmates were great also!”

“The classroom was great. The trucks were great. The Instructors were great. And… my fellow classmates were great!”

“As an individual who has already had two careers, I’m excited about my third. Safe Drivers Institute of America was an excellent entry point into the Transportation Industry. Instructors take a personal interest in the students and their success. Open access to the range for students during after-hours is unheard of… and even an on-site bunkhouse! You can’t go wrong!”

“I’m glad I chose SDIA for my CDL School! The Staff not only cares about you getting your CDL, but they also genuinely care about your success and your safety. Great Staff, great facility, and a great school!”

“Being a guy who never drove a clutch vehicle, I came to SDIA and gained the knowledge and skill to operate a tractor trailer. My experience at SDIA was nothing less than spectacular and filled with knowledge!”

“This was the best money I have ever spent on myself. The training was top notch and in-depth. If you are serious about getting a CDL, this is the only place to attend; no question about it. I was also impressed by the fact that before signing up for SDIA, I went to a state testing facility and one of the workers there said they really like the students trained at SDIA.”

“It’s crazy to think 5 weeks ago, I never drove anything with a trailer. Now, I have the ability to drive and park a Semi-Truck/Trailer with confidence. It’s amazing how fast you can learn something new if you apply yourself!”

“Choosing SDIA was the BEST decision I made when I decided to get my CDL again. The knowledge and years of experience from the Instructors is invaluable. Thank you SDIA!”

“Hands-Down the Best CDL School in the State! While searching around for which school to attend, the competition just could not offer anything close to what is offered at SDIA. During training you work one on one with an Instructor, and while you drive as well. There is no sharing trucks with other students while you drive; it is just you and the Instructor. Thank You SDIA!”

“This school was recommended to me by a professional. I am so very glad I attended here. From the way the classes are structured to all the Instructors, I received top-notch learning here. And… I am now on my way to becoming a safe and professional driver!”

“As an individual who had never sat behind the wheel of a CMV, SDIA gave me the tools and confidence to take on my next chapter in life. The slaps on the shoulder and the “at-a-boys” from trainer Fred, went a long way and were always a great pick-me-up!”

“Safe Drivers Institute of America is the school to go to if you are looking to become a Safe and Professional Truck Driver. I really enjoyed learning from all the Instructors. I am going to miss everyone at SDIA!”

“The Instructors are very helpful and knowledgeable! They made it a lot easier to understand each part of the school. The Instructors are honest and truthful.”

“SDIA didn’t just prepare me to successfully pass the Class A CDL State Exam, they also prepared me to be a Safe & Professional Driver!”

“At the beginning it may look like a long, hard way to go, but it starts to become easier and easier as you practice and put forth the effort toward what you want… your CDL!”

“This Program is the very best when it comes to Safety and learning how to drive a tractor-trailer the right way. The Director and the Instructors are the very best; Kathey, Lowell and Fred. I could not be any more confident getting ready to take my CDL test. SDIA is a 10 out of 10... or should I say… a Perfect Score!”

“You can go from knowing nothing about semi's on day-one, to knowing a semi like the back of your hand, with SDIA. Great School & Program!”

“I thank you guys for helping me become the professional driver I want to be. I am glad and happy to share my experience at SDIA with others. Also, thanks for being patient with me”

“I never thought about completing CDL School before, and this school made it easy for me to learn and to finish as the Top-of-My-Class! My eyes have been opened as to how important safety is and I went from knowing zero to getting my CDL.”

“Thanks SDIA for helping me get my Class A CDL License! Driving on the road and learning the range skills were my favorite things.”

“I am confident SDIA has prepared me with all the necessary training to succeed and to pass the State CDL Test!”

“This was a terrific learning opportunity. With desire, determination and a good work ethic, anyone can be taught a new career in only 5 weeks. Safe Drivers Institute of America was a Great Choice for me. No regrets!”

“My SDIA experience was a rollercoaster ride because every time I felt I had it, it kept slipping away. My advice is, keep your mind settled at all times, even through mistakes. Never get so intense that you miss the bigger picture. Relax and learn, because the sun will shine tomorrow, regardless of how your day went. Always remember when you See It, SAY it, and BELIEVE IT! SDIA ROCKS!!!!”

“This school will prepare you to be a safe and efficient driver, better than any other school in the state. They will make sure you know exactly how to do it right and what you are doing wrong. If you want to be properly prepared for your state CDL test, don’t go anywhere else but SDIA. They will make you the safe, long-living truck driver we all want to be.”

“You will get way more than your money’s worth from this school. If you are wanting a profession as a CMV Driver, this is the school you want to go to. They truly are what they say they are. Work their plan and you will succeed!”

“I’m so glad I chose this school! Everything was wonderful, from the classroom to the Range and Road; even all the Instructors. The Instructors put you on a path to success. SDIA is Top Notch!!”

“I absolutely chose the right CDL school. I had never driven a stick shift in my life. I had never hauled a trailer. But, in 5 weeks, I was transformed into a truck driver. I am grateful they put Safety first in all they do. The amount of quality time behind the wheel and one on one training exceeded my expectations. This is a first-class school with quality people who truly care about the students. Job well done. I highly recommend SDIA!”

“My experience with SDIA was amazing… great teachers and good people. I learned everything the school offered to teach, and I am thankful because they do care, and they want us to succeed! Thank you SDIA for everything!”

“SDIA is very reasonably priced and has skilled and knowledgeable Instructors. Also, the instructions are geared to passing the CDL Skills Tests the 1st time!”

“While I did not attend other schools; I did visit them, and SDIA was the RIGHT PLACE and is night and day above the pack. Don’t waste your time with the OTHERS.”

“The Staff and Directors at SDIA, Class A-CDL Truck Driving School, aim to please and make the learning process as enjoyable as possible. The positive attitudes and atmosphere go a long way. You always have a smile on your face each day, at some point. SDIA is a high caliber Truck Driving Institution that puts high quality and high demand skills in your hands.”

“SDIA brought me from near to no knowledge of the trucking industry and no experience with a tractor-trailer, to driving safely and having a great understanding of the industry.”

“I am so glad I chose to go to SDIA. It literally changed some aspects of my life moving forward for the better. Not only do you come out on top with safety and knowledge for the industry, but you also come out a better YOU!”

“Overall this has been a great experience. Not only did it change the way I drive, but it also changed who I am.”

“I would recommend SDIA to anyone looking to further their career into the commercial driving industry. The Instructors are amazing and they pride themselves on making you the best driver you can be.”

“The 5 weeks went really fast and it was a fun time. The Instructor was pretty cool and they are really nice people at the school. I learned a lot from this class.”

“I really enjoyed my time here. The Program went by quickly, I learned a lot and I enjoyed it!”

“Anyone who is looking to get a Class A CDL should pick SDIA. It is a very different school in a good way. At first, I thought it would be easy, but it was harder at the beginning. Then things started to click fast for me and I did really good!”

“After having gone through a different school and having experience as a Class A Driver in the past, I was glad I chose SDIA to attend this time around. I love the focus on “safety above everything else” mindset; and the fact that you go through a forklift certification is a huge bonus. Lowell and Josh are both very knowledgeable Instructors and they don’t miss much. Overall, it was a great decision to come to SDIA!”

“In my research looking for truck driving schools in the Indy area, it seemed to me SDIA was longer and provided a wider variety of training. Now that school is wrapping up, I feel I was truly blessed to come through SDIA. The program is fully thought out and purposeful. The Instructors, while they can be tough, are truly motivated by the desire to not only see their students obtain their CDL, but also to be successful & safe professional drivers on the road. I can’t say thanks enough!!!”

“SDIA not only gives you the basic knowledge of truck driving, but also teaches the importance of safety! I would recommend SDIA to ANYONE.”

“SDIA is a GREAT School with GREAT Folks! It’s the ONLY School I would recommend!”

“SDIA provides a solid foundation for those seeking a career in the Trucking Industry. You will learn to operate a tractor-trailer combination, with an emphasis on SAFETY. Choose this Training Program and bring 3 things with you to succeed: 1) A positive mental attitude. 2) High expectations of this training program. 3) High expectations of yourself. SDIA is a great program and to all the Instructors… THANK YOU!”

“The Training is Perfect! The instructors care and give you more than just the skills to pass your State CDL Exam. You truly feel a part of the "Family" while at SDIA!”

“If you want a good, solid understanding of the basics of truck driving and not just be trained on “how to pass a CDL test”, then THIS is the school for YOU!”

“As a Military Veteran and a former small business owner, structure is very important to me. As a graduate of SDIA, I must say this school is structured in a way that if you're teachable and apply yourself, it's not only possible to graduate, but also comes without difficult challenges or much stress. I will forever be grateful to the entire SDIA staff for their high level of professionalism and dedication to putting safe drivers on the road!”

“I started school with a positive outlook. I knew I had a lot to learn, but never imagined I would have learned so much in 5 weeks. I thought because of my experience having a Class B CDL already, there would be less to learn; but I was wrong. Driving a tractor-trailer is a whole new world with a different set of rules. I am glad to be finished so I can start my career!”

“SDIA is the BEST school around for Class A CDL training. Kathey is a fantastic classroom Instructor and is very helpful and nice. Lowell has to be the best driving Instructor there is. He is completely there for you as a trainer and wants the very best for his students. All in all, I am overly pleased with the professionalism of everyone at SDIA and how much they actually care. THANK YOU SDIA!!!”

“This is the CDL Program you are looking for!! You will get all the training you need and some you didn’t even know you needed. Just cancel your other appointments, delete the bookmarks from other places and pick up the phone and give Kathey, at SDIA, a call!”

“Simply, I was at a crossroads with my career and I was looking for a program to provide me with skills to succeed. SDIA turned out to be The Program to fill that need. SDIA is a 10 out of a 10!”

“This is a great school! I have very much enjoyed these last 5 weeks and it has been an extremely exciting experience. The Instructors made learning easy and they really showed they care. The atmosphere was relaxed and I am confident this school played a huge roll in my success!”

“In my book, SDIA is a 5 Star School. The Instructors have years and years of experience backed up with a blue collar hard work ethic and a white collar professionalism. Combine that with down home values and a caring attitude, and you have a school that is hard to match; and in my opinion, impossible to beat.”

“I drove a tractor/trailer on a farm and wanted to get my Class A CDL. So I decided to attend SDIA and I learned so much more than I thought I knew!”

“When I was deciding on which school to go to, I thought I was choosing the best school, but now I KNOW I chose the best school. The small class size and low student-teacher ratio is the best way to learn. The friendly and knowledgeable Instructors really teach you in a way that sticks. I highly recommend SDIA to anyone who is serious about learning how to drive a truck the right way.”

“Coming back to driving, after having an extended break from it, the Class time, Range and Driving time with the Instructors was motivation for me to become a better Driver.”

“The amazing Instructors each bring their own style, strength, personality and fervor for the material taught and toward the students. They are kind and caring, even when being extremely hard on you.”

“SDIA has been a wonderful experience! I can’t say enough good things about the staff, facilities or equipment. If you want to get your Class A CDL, I wouldn’t dare go anywhere else but SDIA!!!”

“It was THE BEST experience. SDIA is a very thorough program. I loved it!”

“I enjoyed my 5 weeks here at SDIA more than my 12 years of regular schooling. SDIA has great, great people and I loved coming here. I never got up in the morning and thought about not going to CDL school. I had some rough days, but man it made the outcome SWEET. Love you SDIA!”

“It is tough at first, but just like anything in life, you have to work through stress and personal negative thoughts and keep going. You can do it.”

“I came to SDIA with minimal understanding of driving a tractor/trailer, and I finished with a great deal of confidence; that I can be a very competent and safe driver. The school is founded upon success in terms of driving skills, safety and professionalism.”

“I didn’t know how difficult driving a big truck could be until I started at SDIA. Now that I have finished the class, it’s not as difficult as I first thought; thanks to the good Instructors.”

“If you just want to pass the CDL test, go somewhere else. BUT... If you want to learn how to be a SAFE & PROFESSIONAL Driver… invest in yourself and go to SDIA!”

“I felt accepted since day one. SDIA has friendly instructors, special speakers, and it was an overall excellent experience. Searching and researching for over 6 months, I am pleased with my decision. Thank you Kathey, Lowell, Andrew, Vic and Fred for EVERYTHING you do!”

“SDIA gives you all the tools needed to start a career as a Professional Driver. Their smaller class size makes it personal and they give personalized attention in all areas. Thank You SDIA!!”

“This is the best Truck Driving School in the State! Everyone was very personable and made you feel like part of their family. Overall, it was an awesome experience.”

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. - Philippians 4:13”. If you really want something, you would stop at nothing to get it. Don’t allow anything or anyone to get in your way of success; not even self. There are going to be days where you don’t want to continue on your path and/or you even question your path. Even then, push through. Trust me… you’ll be glad you finished your journey. I know I am!”

“I come from a working experience in Customer Service and I had never thought or imagined myself doing anything else. However, when I did make the choice to pursue truck driving, SDIA ensured I would have the skills necessary to be a successful, safe and professional driver.”

“I had a great experience at SDIA. They teach you very well and give you the knowledge to pass the CDL State Test. They give you a lot of practice time on the Range and the Road. The Instructors are very helpful in teaching you the proper way to drive a truck and to be safe out on the road. My overall outlook on the school and program is… There isn’t a better school out there!”

“I had a great experience at SDIA learning to drive the truck. All of the people associated with the school are very helpful and great to work with. I would highly recommend SDIA to anyone wanting to enter the truck driving profession.”

“I did my homework before choosing SDIA, visiting several other CDL schools, and I was extremely impressed with the degree of helpfulness and professionalism when corresponding with the SDIA staff. Once admitted, I soon found out how challenging the training would be, and I thanked God everyday for it. Truck driving is a demanding career and a lifestyle commitment. SDIA does a great job of preparing truck drivers for the real world with real world training experience!”

“SDIA went above and beyond my expectations! The staff is very professional. Lots of institutions pack a classroom full of people and hope you make it, but SDIA cares whether you are ready to go or not. The school has definitely taught me how to be a safe driver, not just in a commercial motor vehicle, but even in my own personal car. My whole outlook on driving has definitely changed for the better. Going forward, I know I will make the trucking industry or any industry better due to the training I learned and acquired at SDIA!”

“SDIA is a very well organized and complete program that is strongly focused on successful completion of CDL, Class A Licenses!”

“Feeling as if I needed a career change to better my life, I started looking into CDL Schools. I prayed to the Lord and asked if this was what He wanted for my life, that He would open the door and find me the proper school; especially since I had no experience in truck driving. Five weeks later, I graduated from SDIA and found my new job and career. Thank you SDIA!”

“SDIA was a lot of fun and has great teachers. I learned a lot about semi tractor trailers and I am looking forward to my new career. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks!”

“The School was Amazing! It was nice to have Instructors who have had years of experience behind the wheel of a truck and know what they are doing. All of the Instructors were nice and very helpful. They will not steer you wrong.”

“SDIA is a great school. The teaching was excellent and I would definitely recommend it!”

“SDIA is the best Truck Driving School I ever came across. The school gives you all the knowledge to become a SAFE and PROFESSIONAL Driver and the tools to "DRIVE PERFECT!”

“I haven't driven a truck in over 14 years and decided to return to the trucking world. I was referred to SDIA and attending the school was one of the best decisions I ever made. The range/road instructors, who I called "Good Cop-Bad Cop", I learned a lot from both of them.  The classroom instructors made book work exciting....imagine that!  I don't remember my first trucking school being educational and fun like SDIA. Applause to the entire staff at SDIA. Thank you for making me one of the world's best truckers.”

“Having never driven a CMV before, I wanted to choose a school that I thought would offer the best opportunity to learn the skills necessary to have a safe and successful career as a Class A CDL Driver, and I found just that at SDIA!”

“Don't go to any other school. SDIA is the BEST place if you want to learn the correct way to drive a semi-truck.  The Instructors are very professional, highly skilled and won't give up on you, even if you aren't getting it as quickly. Kathey, Lowell and Charlie are the best. I'm so happy I went to SDIA for my training.”

“If you want the best training and to learn how to drive a truck the RIGHT way, SDIA is THE PLACE to go!”

“SDIA’s Truck Driving School is a VERY outstanding, fabulous school to go to if you REALLY want to learn how to drive & operate a tractor-trailer.”

“SDIA has the best and most complete program/course around. The Instructors are very caring, helpful, understanding, skilled and very knowledgeable. The driving experience is the best because of their one-on-one instruction. On the Range and on the Road you have one-on-one training. The family atmosphere at SDIA is phenomenal. Graduating from SDIA makes me feel like I have a new family!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Safe Drivers Institute of America. This program gave me the skills and confidence I needed to start my new career. I highly recommend SDIA!”

“SDIA does an outstanding job of preparing you for your career in the industry, not just how to pass the state CDL skills test. At SDIA, safety is not a buzzword or a flavor of the month; it is a culture they teach and live by. They prepare you for your CDL test as well as your life after the test. Highly Recommended!”

“I had an EXCELLENT experience at SDIA and I highly recommend them!”

“The Instructors are all great and always willing to help! Thanks to all!”

“WOW, what a great learning experience. At first, it seemed like a lot of information to digest, then next thing you know, it's over and you've got it! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SCHOOL!”

“I was very impressed with the Instructors. Everyone was very well informed and could express themselves so we could understand and the Instructors took extra time for those who needed it. I would recommend this school to anyone wanting to get into driving or needing a Refresher Course.”

“I started SDIA never driving a truck before. The Instructors all made me feel at ease. They provided me with the tools needed to be successful and a good, safe professional driver. I am now able to locate a good paying job and feel comfortable as I enter this new chapter of my life.”

“Since coming to this school, I’ve learned that I wasn’t really driving safe at all. I’ve learned and understand more about the Big Picture when driving. I enjoyed the Instructors and the course. I would recommend SDIA to anyone who is looking at going to truck driving school.”

“SDIA is a great school. It is a MUST for all new drivers.”

“I was extremely pleased with SDIA. Their knowledge of laws and regulations, as well as having a staff that is second to none, exceeded my expectations. If anyone is thinking of becoming a Professional Driver, they need to attend SDIA.”

“I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first came, but I’m glad I came to SDIA. I went and checked out all the CDL training schools in the city and didn’t like what I heard. After visiting SDIA, my mind was made up. All the things SDIA offers make them one of the BEST in my eyes. The instructors have a lot of experience and are good instructors. Now, I am ready to start a new chapter in my life. Thanks Guys!”

“I was confused at first on which school to attend. I visited SDIA after visiting another school. When I left the informational seminar about SDIA, I knew SDIA was what I wanted in a school. Their price is good, their classes are kept smaller and I felt like a person, not just a number. I really like the time we spent on safety and the extra, individualized, personal attention. I am very confident with my choice. Thank you!”

“Enrolling in SDIA was one of the best experiences I have been through. All of the Instructors were professionals with great passion for their profession. Everyone had a great sense of humor, which made it easy to obtain knowledge and enjoy showing up every day. I have the utmost respect for the trucking industry, and appreciate everything SDIA did to help me on my journey to secure my future and peace of mind. Thank you Safe Drivers Institute of America, your commitment is invaluable.”

“In my decision on a driving school, SDIA was my choice. They have a one-on-one, personal touch type of environment and you can’t beat that. I liked how much knowledge is given to you from such a professional and experienced group of people. I like the way it felt like such a family environment. Overall, SDIA is a great place and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in Driving School. Thank you SDIA!”

“I enjoyed the class a TON. I got to work with the best instructors! Overall, the program is outstanding!”

“SDIA provides a wonderful education for CDL drivers. As a former teacher, I appreciated the thoroughness of the instruction and the individual attention given to each student. SDIA is the place to go if you want to learn to be a “true” professional driver, and not a “steering wheel holder”.”

“The SDIA program was AWESOME! All teachers and instructors were polite and very dedicated. I went from not knowing how to drive a clutch at all, to now knowing and doing it well. I received a lot of new knowledge and training to help me for my future.”

“Upon visiting two other schools, I decided on SDIA based on their individual road training approach and their extended overall training class and hours. It’s a 10 outta 10!”

“I would like to thank the Instructors at SDIA for their time, knowledge and professionalism. They take the time with each student to make sure you build on your strengths and improve your weaknesses. You learn more about the industry you are about to join, its history and what makes it so great. You learn what it takes to succeed and not be just another driver on the road, but a professional & safe driver. My Safety is Intentional – Not Accidential!”

“Intense, Top-Notch, Superb and with all that hype type phraseology being said; when the research has been done, I don’t believe you will find a better truck driving school.”

“I would give the SDIA Program an A. I have never driven a stick shift-manual transmission before, but now I no longer feel the fear of driving one!”

“If you ever decide to pursue a career driving a Commercial Vehicle, SDIA is the perfect way to start. All the Instructors are very skilled, passionate and have the proper knowledge in the truck driving field. I wouldn’t recommend any other truck driving school. SDIA ONLY!! ...and I’m not just saying it because I was the Top of the Class winner either.”

“I enjoyed the Instructors. Very educational. Teachers were friendly and informative. I learned a lot and was given some great advice. I think anyone willing to learn would benefit greatly from this class. All in all, SDIA was a great life experience. I believe my career in driving will be enhanced greatly by this school.”

“SDIA is a quality program with hands-on experience. Also, the course is taught by very experienced people who know what they are talking about. They will teach the "textbook" information, but more importantly, they teach Real World situations. SDIA is a good investment.”

“If you want to be a Truck Driver, this IS the place to be! You will also become close to the other classmates in your class.”

“I would highly recommend SDIA. The Administrative Staff and Instructors are thorough in everything you need to do and know. I feel well taught and accomplished. Everyone is friendly and makes you feel comfortable. It's a family environment. Thank you to all at SDIA.”

“I’ve heard and seen testimonials and videos of people studying and passing the CDL test on their own and don’t see how or if it is really true. What I do know is… I, myself have and will from today forward recommend this school. I could not have learned all the parts and steps, etc. without SDIA. I rate the SDIA Program as Outstanding.”

“Having a father who retired from the motor carriers inspection division and several friends in the industry, SDIA was highly recommended. I was not disappointed. From small class sizes, giving 1 on 1 driving instruction, to ample time behind the wheel honing driving skills; I was thoroughly satisfied with this program. An A+!”

“To anyone who wants a truck driving school that will teach more than the basics, a school that will teach you to be safe and legal; I can’t recommend any school other than SDIA. SDIA has prepared me to enter the truck driving field.”

“I’ve never been behind the wheel of a large vehicle before, so I was nervous at first. The staff at SDIA helped me every step of the way and helped me to become comfortable with driving. It was a great experience and one I’m glad I took advantage of.”

“I am very pleased that I chose a school with a longer program. I am leaving knowing that I am better qualified to be a safe and successful driver. I feel it was a great investment. The school was TOP NOTCH and even better than I expected!”

“At SDIA you will learn much more about driving a truck. Other schools may teach you how to pass the CDL test, but at SDIA you will be a safe driver, an educated driver, and you will have much more experience driving; as opposed to other schools.”

“At SDIA you will learn to SAFELY drive a truck and be prepared to pass the CDL skills test!!!”

“Only SDIA offers the amount of time behind the wheel that is really needed to get comfortable driving. The facilities; including the classroom, range, equipment and everything else are top notch. Finally, the Instructors bring a good level of experience and teaching ability to the classroom, range and road. You won't find a better truck driving school anywhere!”

“SDIA is a great truck driving school. I learned a lot. The Instructors are awesome and they taught me so much. I feel that I have come a long way since I started the class. They are very good teachers and made me feel really comfortable. I would recommend this school to anyone who wants to learn how to drive a truck.”
