Truck Driving School in Florida CLOSED DOWN
By now, most of you have heard about the truck driving school in Melbourne,Florida that was closed down.
Truck Driving Academy Closed by DHSMV
The Interstate Trucking Academy in Melbourne, Florida was shut down by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles due to improper testing procedures. According to the State Attorney's Office, criminal charges, including racketeering, may be brought against the owner, Joseph Neal Smith, 51.
Over 730 drivers were brought to a screeching hault due to the shutdown. All of the drivers of the school, which opened in November 2004, will be required to be retested by October 4, 2007 or their CDL licenses will be revoked.
This is an excellent example as to why you should completely investigate a driving school before you attend.
No doubt, these people paid good money for their training, and now are required to retake the test.
