Mr. Dustin Phillips
Overland Park , KS 66221
I have been in the trucking industry for over twenty year. Since 2019 I have been a CDL instructor. I have taught over 1400 students at this point. For the last three years I have maintained a 100 percent passing average with my contracts. I have worked with Earp, R & L Carriers, Werner, Schneider, BNSF, Atmos Energy, Water One, Agenda USA, Grainger, and many of the Public Works in the Kansas City metro area as it relates to CDL training. I oversee all of the CDL training for Union Pacific. I am one of the top CDL instructors in the US and leading experts in commercial motor vehicles. I have operated nearly every form of commercial motor vehicles and heavy equipment.
I have written articles related to driving and the trucking industry. I have appeared on several national television shows as a guest since 1998. You will not find another expert quite like me.
