Learning to drive the Road Ranger gearbox
Learning to drive with Deano was a very very fulfilling experience. I have never met a truck driver trainer that always gives you confidence even when you stuff up, until I met Deano. He has a tremendously good attitude with people from all walks of life. I will always recommend Clarky’s Truck Driver Training Tamworth.
And not forgetting Henry who assessed me with fairness and honesty. Thank you guys.
HR-MC
I had a excellent 2 days experience and professional training with deano. Now deano is not just anybody he is one of the most top blokes you would ever meet he will give you plenty of laughs and jokes makes you feel welcomed and comfortable during your training. There is not a blunt moment with Deano I would highly recommend everyone to go and see Deano for your truck licenses👌
Upgrade to MC
Great experience, took all the pressure out of the process. One trainer and Assessor which was great. Deano has a great sense of humour and was a really good instructor. Would highly recommend to everyone.
