Feds Shut Down 110 Driving Schools | Charleston News

The feds just shut down 110 commercial driving schools for certifying drivers who failed basic English tests—putting public safety at risk. Since 1937, English proficiency has been a federal requirement for CDL holders, and the FMCSA traced over 5,000 out-of-service drivers back to these schools. While schools can appeal, a bigger battle looms: 22 states are suing DOT over record demands, with the feds threatening to withhold millions in funding. FMCSA head insists this crackdown is non-negotiable—only qualified drivers should steer big rigs. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
