In reply to valrab. If you can't retain the truck driving knowledge for 2 months then you shouldn't have a commercial license.

The DMV was backlogged forty years ago. Nice to see things Have changed! Problem is in CA they just get worse! What the hell has this state come to? Looks like bureaucrats are running their own asylum and screwing things up for all of us! I was gone for 25 years and this state is unrecognizable!

Dmv wants you to fail so they can collect another $80.00 X that 4000. and you will see why.

The Dmv wants you to fail your skills test, so you pay another $80.00 Dollars look at the $ they can make , so they fail you for the stupidest things. Then you pay and take your written again. What a bunch of crooks.

The Pasadena DMV office has armed security at both doors and all the employees are behind thick bullet proof acrylic protection.

Only the government doesn’t have to treat their customers better.

A private business would have to cater to the customer or would go out of business.

Everybody is trying to solve this the WRONG WAY.

1. Require ALL Public Employees to have a Valid Medical Certificate and a Class A license.
2. Require Retesting Annually for All Public Employees.

The problems will be Fixed Overnight.

In reply to mike. Several months waiting after you take the written test or an unreasonable time to take the test can cause one the fail the second test. It's unfortunate the DMV cannot be sued for the incompetence.

I completely disagree.

Testing for Class A should not be easily had. Sorry but we have 6 drivers for our company and everyone of them is trained via us, school and then the state test. Even then, the mission is to be safe and to farm it out means those less likely to pass will pass and should not pass.

This is not a crisis. Keep the standards high for once in your lives people. Big rigs are no joke.
