Honestly, Raider Express & the FTW school is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. No one in any position asked me to write a review. I obtained my CDL. Everyone there just simply cares about you. They know the struggles, and everyone in the Raider Express family wants to see you grow and wants you to be successful. Captain Kirk is one of the most helpful so as everyone else. My experience with Captain Kirk was totally awesome. We would have jokes, talk about life experiences, and learn. He explains everything you need to know. CPT. Kirk is the most down to earth person. It doesn’t matter where you come from. If you are willing to learn and PAY ATTENTION to what he says you’ll pass your drivers test. Even in your first week of obtaining a CLP if you put time and hard work. You’ll get it. Everyone in the FTW School and Raider Express is there to give you the fundamentals on what you need. As what CPT. Kirk says, the recipe is given to you. You just need to bake the cake. Thank you too all of the FTW School and Raider Express family for helping to start my new journey in life. If it wasn’t for the FTW School and Raider Express I don’t know where I would’ve started my career.

My husband applied and apparently it’s up to the boss lady (Abby Tham) if you can move forward with the program. My husband had all qualifications and was still turned away for no reason. Every time I’ve called I’ve always received rude people! I don’t suggest this program. It’s not open to everyone, they like to pick there workers/drivers.

Great Program! I would highly recommend the Fort Worth CDL School to anyone that is Serious and hard working. They provide all the basic knowledge to get you started, then help you along the way with weeks of training. I’ve been Solo now since early June 2022, I’m loving it! Looking forward to growing with the Raider Express Family!

I am glad that I made the decision to apply to the Fort Worth CDL School. The instructors are very fun & knowledgeable. I was able to obtain my CDL License in four short but intense weeks. Driving for Raider wasn't a good fit for me, but I do appreciate the training & now I make really good money somewhere else. Thank you from B.King and family...

Do I have to work for them once am done with the classes ? I wanna work for family

Juan Dominguez | Feb 8, 2022
daponage googenburg | Feb 8, 2022

Theres no contract to specifically work for Raider. However, they do only hire if your willing to work for Raider. So possibly work for them for a few months then work for family?

Does anyone know how many cents per mile they make when you become a solo driver? On the website it says they make 1300 a week is this true?

Makayla Barnett | Nov 6, 2019
Michael Lee | Nov 6, 2019

Im still in training, but as im told the longer you stay out, the more big routes you get. First year solo gets base pay 38 cents a mile. Thats at 488 miles a day, totally doable, but you dont always drive every day. Some days you a get a few hundred miles and sit at the shipper the rest of the day, but they are good at getting you layover pay if its been too long. But out training, ive only had to sit a day or two because we were too early. You should do it! Its fun!

If I am on my last week . Which day they will send to dMv for driving test ? How many chances I will get ?

umber farooki | Nov 6, 2019
Kris Harcrow | Nov 6, 2019

You don't do a test at the DMV. You take it on their property with a certified tester. How many chances depends on if you're using the tools they gave you or not.

Is there a two day cdl class in fort worth Texas

Melissa Lucas | Nov 6, 2018
Bassil Alanbari | Nov 6, 2018

Not any that I know of. And honestly after being on the road for a month, I'm happy I went to this school because I promise you just because you have a CDL doesn't mean you know how to drive an 18 wheeler safely or effectively. After 4 weeks of school, 28 days OTR training and a month on the road by myself, I'm just now starting to feel like I'm getting the hang of it. If you are thinking seriously about a career in professional commercial driving, there's literally no where else that can offer the same quality of education and experience that these people can.

My husband wants to get his cdl i was wanting a little more info on the school and who he will working for after and if he will be getting payed while in school?

Samantha Gill | Nov 6, 2018
Rueben Mccray | Nov 6, 2018

Its pretty cool you will do four weeks of training within that time you will get the skills you need to pass your cdl test after. You pass you will get put with a otr trainer he will show you the ropes after your 28 days with him or her you will pretty much get your own truck you get paid for all of this of course and you will be working for raider Express good company if i say so myself
