 * Delete. When I came to this article it looked like this, a directory of non-notable companies, and that is not what Wikipedia is for. I removed all entries that did not have Wikipedia articles, but all that left was a handful of colleges that offer truck driving courses - notable as colleges, not as truck driving schools. There's nothing left that qualifies as a truck driving school that's notable for actually being a truck driving school, so I don't see anything to keep here.

 * Delete There actually should be an article on United States truck driving school, but a list of them is just a directory -- which WP is not.Kitfoxxe (talk) 13:34, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * There is!!! Commercial driver's license training. Kitfoxxe (talk) 13:35, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Should that perhaps be renamed to something that makes it clear it's USA-specific? Squinge (talk) 18:29, 30 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - Not a directory. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:28, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Presumably one could write a decent article on such schools, but this isn't it; you'd need to remove everything here for a decent article, so there's no point in retaining this.  Redirecting to Commercial driver's license training wouldn't be a good idea, since it ought to be a globalised article, rather than its current US-only contents.

 * Delete. This only concerns truck driving schools in the U.S., which there should be a lot of given the number of truck drivers in the U.S. Since the vast majority of such schools are not notable, and a redirect is not plausible, it should be deleted.

 * Delete as we're not a directory. – Davey 2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 17:46, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:NOTDIR; we do not need an indiscriminate list which contains a huge amount of non-notable companies. Luke no 94  (tell Luke off here) 18:31, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
