After reading this story I think you can see clearly why it
is so important to choose the right Truck Driving School. It is always
best to choose one with a long-standing reputation for being top notch.
It is important to note that this article addresses only accusations. I found
this article important because I believe it echoes a situation that is
currently alleged often in the truck driving school industry. I hope after
reading this, those considering a school will be able to make a more informed
decision.

Here is a summary of the story that ran on Friday, May 08, 2009 on myFOXdetriot.com.

“Local truck driving school Nu-Way is being accused of fraud. Former students
say the center is preying on the unemployed desperate for work and leaving them
in deeper debt with sub-par skills.

Here is a quote form one of the former students, Greg Adkins. “They pretty much
promise you just a whole new life. All your problems are going to be solved.
All your financial woes will be gone.”

Greg learned about Nu-Way at the Michigan Works office in Livonia. An unemployed
contractor struggling to save his home, Adkins applied and planned to use
tuition assistance from the state to learn how to drive a truck.

Adkins said recruiters convinced him to finance it himself so he could start sooner,
assuring him he would not have to pay anything.

“He and his boss both assured me that it wasn’t going to cost me either way. Just
let the company that hired me pay for it,” Adkins said.

It cost $6,000 for a three-week course and the promise of a great job and
salary. However, Adkins got a job that paid less than $10.00 a hour and could
not keep it long enough for the tuition reimbursement because the skills he
said he learned at Nu-Way were not up to par.

“These are vulnerable people. These are people who are on the verge of losing their
homes. These are people who have been laid off from work and there’s a lot of
laid off workers here in Michigan,” said Bill Godfrey, a legal researcher
for the Ambrose Law Group.

Ambrose is representing seven clients will similar stories and filed a lawsuit claiming
Nu-Way is in violation of the Michigan Consumer Protection Act and that they
engage in false advertising and fraud.

“We want the courts to step in and say, ‘No Nu-Way. You can’t do this
anymore’,” Godfrey said.

A representative from Nu-Way said they have not been served with any lawsuit and,
in the event that they are served, their attorneys will prove it to be
false.”
