Reviews of Overdrive Truck Driver Training (Driving School)

Bonnie A Thompson

I would 100% recommend Overdrive. Dan is awesome, patient, hardworking, kind, friendly, and a wonderful teacher! He trained me on b-trains and 53feet van. Where another training school only have 53 feet trailers. The b- trains are a get Asset to Overdrive. When you finish the courses with him, you’ll be a safe truck driver, no matter what your background knowledge or information is! I would like to appreciate Lori, Dan’s wife, for the great homemade lunches she made for us every day! Which I was not expecting at all.

This was a great place to get my 3A licence, I made an awesome decision to come here and meet Dan, one the most genuine guys you will ever meet and at lunch time his wife would make us great food, these are good people. Know I had never driven a semi truck and in one week Dan made me a good driver, I got my air breaks, I got my inspection done the first day we went for my test I passed, but my driven I messed up, I had to do it a few more times after that and I felt like I wanted to quit and do it in an auto trans instead of the manual trans, but Dan didn't let me, he said I could do it and he believed in me and finally I got it. THANKS DAN...

Dan and Kevin are top notch instructors! Calm and patient they work there hardest to get anyone ready to be on the road! The quality of driving they help you develop is high calibre, and they care about there students on an individual basis. Not only do they want you to pass your sgi exams they try there best prepare you to be a strong and reliable employee ready for the industry! The years of experience that is shared between them allows them to share knowledge and skills far beyond what’s considered the basics and help you become a great driver right as you enter the industry! I couldn’t be happier with what I’ve learnt in both knowledge and skills. I %100 feel like I chose the best in picking overdrive to complete my 1A melt training! Thanks Dan, Kevin and Lori!

Dan is just straight up a great instructor. During the "in class" portion of the program he takes the mundane information from the sgi manual and manages to relay it in an understandable, and practical way. He often tells stories from his many years of being a professional driver, but they always served a purpose in helping to better your own truck driving skills. In the truck, Dan got me shifting and thinking in a different manner. He drove home the importance of progressive shifting and how that will bring up my fuel economy and save me from mechanical issues in the long run. He stressed a number of times that he wants to train people to be good operators, not just steering wheel holders. Dan's wife Lori also provided some amazing home cooked lunches during our training which i was not expecting! My favourite was the pork chops with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, and HOMEMADE apple sauce!! Could not believe it! Overall, a great experience. I highly recommend training with Dan at Overdrive!!

I would 100% recommend to anyone who’s looking to learn how to drive truck to train with Dan. Dan is a smart, kind, patient, and very skilled experienced driver who also is gifted in teaching. No matter what your background may be, Dan will be able to adapt to each individual and give you the necessary tools to pass your test and most importantly tips that will keep you safe once you get your license.

You looking to get your 1A's? Than you came to the right place, here you'll find yourself becoming a brand new driver learning different techniques and skills on how to handle a truck. The instructor has a lot of patience with his students and has quite the character! Never a dull moment with Dan even when you think your wrecking his truck he will use those mistakes in making you a better driver. Most importantly his wife Lori is one of the nicest and sweetest ladies you'll find. She is willing to cook up a whole feast at lunch time for all the students! You will not be disappointed by her cooking. You wanna know how to become one of her favorites? Well I'll tell you right now you'll never beat me, but I'll let you in on a little secret. If you bring her a fresh bucket of milk from a dairy farm you'll be golden. Most importantly you will have a good time taking your 1A's and will learn the right way on how to drive the truck. So what are you waiting for? Give Dan a call and get your 1A's booked today!
