Quotes From the Trucking Schools

When you graduate from CR England Truck Driving Schools you get asked to fill out a survey about your experience up to that
point. The surveys can be filled out with or without a name on them. They are of course, optional for the students
to fill out. We use the surveys to monitor our progress. We believe the
surveys paint a picture of what is really going on at our truck driving schools.


Here are just a few of the quotes from our recent truck driving school graduates:

Aarton S said:

 "All Instructors are very intelligent and courteous not to mention
very professional.”

" England instructors are very good and patient with the students.”

Brian E wrote:

“All instructors in driving school are outstanding, very patient w/students trying to break old driving habits.”

a lot about the talented staff we have training at our truck driving
schools. You can see why we proudly say our trainers are the
best in the business!

Truck Driving Schools Happy To Hear Of Positive Data

Truck Driving Schools at CR England are happy to hear of some positive economic data.

Last week Charirman of the Board, Dan England was quoted in the  Salt Lake Tribune
(click for the entire artice) in article about executives being somewhat upbeat on the economy. The article has other executives who are also positive.

Other recent economic data from the American Trucking Association (ATA) reported that truck tonnage fell a seasonally adjusted 2.2% in April, after plunging 4.5% in March. The positive story here is that the tonnage fell less. In this economy, a slower contraction has been viewed as a positive sign.

The tonnage has been trending down since the turn of the year. According to the Association of American Railroads weekly traffic report, rail freight traffic still remains extremely weak compared to the turn of the year.

The American Truckers Association chief economist, Bob Costello was quoted, speaking in a different light, in an article on Seeking Alpha. Costello said last week, “While most key economic indicators are decreasing at a slower rate, the year-over-year contractions in truck tonnage accelerated because businesses are right-sizing their inventories, which means fewer truck shipments…The absolute dollar value of inventories has fallen, but sales have decreased as much or more, which means that inventories are still too high for the current level of sales. Until this correction is complete, freight will be tough for motor carriers”.
