If you are getting a CDL for an Odessa oilfield or equipment-hauling job, describe the truck you expect to operate when you call. A straight truck carrying tools and a tractor pulling a trailer can call for different test vehicles. We can discuss air brakes, transmission type, backing practice and availability for your DPS appointment.
Use your appointment notice for the exact testing site or court. Check the official office page for hours, eligibility and precinct boundaries. These addresses belong to the listed organizations.
