Tulsa trucking school is putting the pedal to the metal to help veterans

Roadmaster Drivers School is taking veterans from the front lines and is putting them behind the wheel.

The driving school is virtually free to veterans thru the GI bill and other military programs.

Bill Reid, admissions representative for the school, says, "A lot fo times, what they've specialized in while in the service, there's no jobs available for that."

Reid tells KRMG that nearly every veteran in their program has had a job offer before they graduated.

Trucking companies across the country are in desperate need of truck drivers.

Reid says, "Everything we have in this room, everything you are wearing has been on a truck. Its one job they won't be able to outsource."
