National CDL Class A Training Portal

Michigan-based Class A CDL Theory training provider

FLO LLC (Freight Logistics Operation) is a Michigan-based CDL training provider offering FLO-authored online Class A CDL Theory training. Our program is built to help students prepare for the FMCSA Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) theory requirements through structured lessons, practice tests, and clear progress tracking.

FLO LLC is not the official Michigan Secretary of State examination system, and does not issue CDLs, CLPs, or state licenses. Our training and practice content is designed to help you prepare for those official steps.

Official DOT resources — public, no login required

These official government resources are publicly accessible and do not require a FLO LLC account or payment:

• FMCSA Training Provider Registry (TPR)
  Find FLO LLC and check your own ELDT training record directly with FMCSA. FLO LLC does not access, store, or display FMCSA record-check results on this website.
• FMCSA: How Do I Get a Commercial Driver's License?
  Official FMCSA CDL/ELDT information and requirements.

These resources are operated by the U.S. Department of Transportation (FMCSA), not FLO LLC, and may occasionally be temporarily unavailable due to federal system maintenance.

Active-duty, Guard, Reserve, and veteran CDL options

FLO LLC proudly supports active-duty service members, National Guard members, Reservists, veterans, and transitioning service members pursuing civilian commercial driving careers.

Your military commercial-vehicle experience may qualify you for special CDL testing exemptions or waivers.

FLO LLC can help you identify the appropriate training pathway without requiring you to purchase training that may not be required.

Employer, college, workforce and other sponsored training options

Students whose training may be supported by an employer, community college, workforce agency, Michigan Works! program, or other sponsoring organization may submit their funding information for review.

Funding eligibility and payment authorization are determined by the sponsoring organization. FLO LLC participation in individual government funding programs is subject to applicable provider approvals.

Canadian and Mexican drivers hauling international freight into the United States

B-1 business visitor — not B-2

A foreign truck driver bringing freight into the United States is admitted as a B-1 business visitor. The B-2 category is for tourism and personal visits; it does not cover commercial driving. Many Mexican drivers carry the DSP-150 Border Crossing Card (“laser visa”), which is a combined B1/B2 document — the trucking itself must still fit the B-1 rules below.

Qualifying international freight

• Inbound: carrying goods loaded in Canada or Mexico to one or several U.S. locations — deliveries in the U.S. are allowed only if all the goods delivered were loaded outside the United States.
• Outbound: loading at one or several U.S. locations for delivery to Canada or Mexico — allowed only if all the goods loaded will be delivered outside the United States.
• The driver must also meet the general B-1 requirements: a foreign residence they do not intend to give up, intent to leave at the end of the authorized stay, enough money for the trip, and no ground of inadmissibility.

Not permitted: domestic U.S. hauling (cabotage)

• A load that is both picked up and dropped off inside the United States (point-to-point) is not permitted for a B-1 driver — even as part of an international trip. Purely domestic service, or soliciting domestic loads in competition with U.S. operators, is not allowed.
• CBP warns that domestic hauling violates the terms of the visa and can lead to its cancellation. The truck itself has separate CBP limits on local U.S. traffic (19 CFR 123.14).
• Visitor status does not permit employment in the United States, and the State Department lists study among the activities not permitted on a visitor visa.

Entry documents (CBP)

• Mexican citizens: a valid passport and visa, or Form DSP-150 Border Crossing Card.
• Canadian citizens: no visa; a Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative document — Canadian passport, FAST or NEXUS card, or enhanced driver's licence.
• FAST (Free and Secure Trade) is CBP's trusted-traveler program for commercial drivers.

Three separate requirements

Admission, the driver's license and the carrier's authority are different approvals from different agencies. Having one does not grant the others.

• Visa / admission — whether the driver may enter, and for what activity: State Department (visas) and CBP (admission).
• Driver licensing — the license to operate a commercial motor vehicle. FMCSA recognizes CDLs issued by Canadian provinces and territories and Mexico's Licencia Federal de Conductor; a holder of one of those may not also obtain a U.S. license (49 CFR 383.23). Drivers must also meet FMCSA qualification rules, including English-language proficiency (49 CFR 391.11).
• Carrier operating authority — whether the company may haul freight in the United States: FMCSA registration and operating authority. A Mexico-domiciled carrier holding only a Certificate of Registration may operate only in U.S. border municipalities and their commercial zones (49 CFR 368.1).
