About 160 Driving Academy

160 Driving Academy Tulsa operates from a commercial campus on South 49th West Avenue, serving students across northeastern Oklahoma. The Tulsa location opened in early 2024 and has built a strong reputation among regional trucking employers who recognize 160 Driving Academy graduates for their preparation and professionalism. The 4-week, 160-hour program delivers 40 hours of classroom instruction alongside 120 hours of behind-the-wheel training on local streets and Oklahoma highways. The campus is FMCSA ELDT-compliant and follows the national 160 curriculum that has trained tens of thousands of drivers across the country. Students benefit from a low 4:1 instructor-to-student ratio, ensuring individual attention during both pre-trip inspection practice and road training. Tuition runs $4,000-$7,000 with employer reimbursement and payment plans available — most students qualify for sponsored tuition through partner carrier programs. Available programs include Class A CDL training, CDL refresher courses, free ELDT theory courses, and hazmat certification. Job placement assistance connects Tulsa-area graduates with regional and national carriers. The school reports average starting salaries of $65,000 for graduates, reflecting strong demand in the Oklahoma and mid-continent trucking market. Student reviews highlight knowledgeable instructors who emphasize real-world confidence-building, particularly during yard maneuvering and pre-trip preparation. Some reviewers noted isolated concerns about consistency, though the overall sentiment reflects a well-run campus delivering solid CDL outcomes for Tulsa-area career changers.
