Hi everyone, question: How My wife can get a CDL but she had a learning disability she can read and write misspelling and sometimes can't understand any topic on the book and where she can get it! She drives perfect, she knows how to drive a 5 speed car...
Howdy, and welcome, Angel C. ~!
First of all, look up 'Disabilities' on this forum and you will see MANY topics, some which may coincide with what your wife is dealing with. Secondly, Google SPE's (Skill Performance Evaluations) for truckers..and gather even MORE data!
Wish the best, to you both!
PS: Follow the links and training and Brett's free book on this website, and with the above research, y'all should be good to move forward.

How cant she? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to drive a big truck. Anyone who can read the English language and has a drivers license can get a cdl. Where did you hear that a learning disability will stop you from driving A truck? It actually never crossed my mind when I applied to a cdl school and I’m a few screws short of a full deck. If your wife can drive a car good then she can learn to drive a truck good. Your never asked to write an essay. There’s a online cdl practice tests that if you take enough anyone could memorize the answers. I laid up the night before taking the written test and did the online test over and over for about 8 hours. Eventually I memorized the answers to every question and for every endorsement. If your wife wants a cdl she shouldn’t be discouraged over a learning disability. This is profession where you don’t need to be book smart at all. Encourage her if she wants it and tell her she won’t be alone out here.

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
She shouldn't have too much of a problem, some of the pretrip might be difficult to understand at first but keep at it and she should be fine.
And thankfully spelling doesnt count or I wouldn't have my license.
