Helping prepare truck driver training schools for a major new federal regulation is at the top of A. Bailey Wood’s priority list.
Wood is taking over as president and CEO of the Commercial Vehicle Training Association (CVTA) from Don Lefeve.
“Obviously the first issue in terms of the association’s priorities is implementation of the entry-level driver training [ELDT] rule, and making sure the states are ready for it as well as the industry,” Wood told FreightWaves. “We’ve had several webinars and are planning to hold more. We’ll be reaching out to the truck driver school industry and make sure they’re up to speed.”
