Need Help Getting Class A Non-Commercial License

I appreciate your trying to be legal in this. Have you considered taking your driving test at ca dmv in Crescent City or Eureka? Then you would need com A or noncom A to ride with you from dealer to dmv while you familiarize yourself and practice driving with learner permit from dealer to ca dmv. Send your driver home and your DW and you are free to travel from crescent city to wherever. Just a thought.
