get the learners, and then drive bigger trucks with a licensed CDL driver. then you go and take the road test and written test at the DMV.

if you are going for a class B, you can drive a straight truck with airbrakes. if going for a Class A, you have to drive a tractor with a trailer, or a dump truck with a trailer and airbrakes.

you have to provide a truck for the test, DMV does not.
