I would cancel that road test zerega (mta) would schedule a road test for you once you qualified in the 10 day training 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if the tests are similar, whether doing it with an outside company or MTA? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the option do it with mta they will teach you everything you need to pass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RailBus63 Posted February 5, 2022 Share #6 Posted February 5, 2022 Can't go wrong getting trained by the MTA and getting paid while doing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get my CDL with the MTA (never worked there), but I'm sure others can answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With MTA you'll do the road test on a specifically designed route out of Eastchester depot. Because most of the buses are out during the day the depot grounds are also used for the skills test training for those with permits that qualify during initial training. Depending on how quickly you qualify you will generally get about a few days to a week to brush up on any maneuvers involving the bus (parallel parking/offset backing/pre-trip inspection) before your road test date that gets scheduled for you once you show proof of the fee being paid. You can practice as many times as you need each of the things you'll have to demonstrate to the DMV official who will administer your skills/road test. It beats paying for lessons at a driving school since you'll be spending 8 hours each day at ECH for training up until your road test. Make the best of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
