The Ontario Truck Driving School founded in 1978 is one of the largest driving schools in the area. It is fully bonded Registered Private Vocational School. The objective is to provide truck, bus and heavy equipment operators’ professional training in the operation of modern equipment utilized by today’s transportation & construction firms.
The Ontario Truck Driving School has grown from three full-time employees to a corporation with more than fifty full and part-time staff members. It offers training in London, Sarnia, Chatham, Niagara-on-the Lake, Owen Sound, Hamilton, Brantford, Kitchener and Windsor.
A Border Crossing Trip was formed in conjunction with Border Officials to offer our students proper border crossing training. We have also incorporated a stop at an MTO Inspection station, where MTO officials provide our students complete understanding of the importance of these stations and exactly what is required of the drivers. Fork Lift , Aerial Lift, Boom Truck Working at Heights & Heavy Equipment Courses were introduced to train students on backhoes, bulldozers, excavators, Wheel Loaders, Rock Trucks, Graders and scrapers. Today an operator’s job involves much more than “Operating the equipment”.
Lessons are taught by qualified over the road instructors who have experienced the challenges you may encounter as a new operator. Thousands of men and women have successfully obtained employment and began careers operating heavy equipment, trucks, buses with the help of our job-oriented training.
The following options are also available; Student Funding, National job Board an exclusive Job Gateway for our graduates, Course Schedules to work around your work schedule. Please visit our website for complete details www.otds.com or call us at 1-800-799-JOBS ( 5627 )

Kim Richardson-KRTS
Early on in my career I had heard the name Kim Richardson. Although I didn’t know him, I had certainly read a lot about Kim and his successful truck training school KRTS. What always intrigued me was his love and passion for the trucking industry. His genuine care and concern about the people working in this industry and more importantly what he could do to make it better.
Kim Richardson and Shelley Uvanile-Hesch
I continued to follow Kim through my adventures in trucking. I’ve seen him speak at various events throughout the years. It always amazed me that this trucking industry executive took the time to attend such events as the professional drivers’ rodeo, trucking for a cure, special olympics convoy and too many other to list them all here. You’re probably asking yourself, what’s the big deal? As a driver I can tell you it’s not often we see the executives at events that are geared for drivers. Kim is one of the few who does and more importantly he takes the time to listen to drivers concerns about the training of new drivers. With Kim, drivers have always been treated like we are ” more than just a driver ” .

When I started the Women’s Trucking Federation Of Canada , I knew the direction we wanted to go in but was unsure how to go about it. We had hit many stumbling blocks and many who thought we were wasting our time. So, I decided to reach out to Kim Richardson in the hopes he would be able to offer us some advice and guidance.
Our first meeting was at KRTS in Caledonia . His warm smile and friendly greeting made me feel confident that I had reached out to the right person. The office enviroment and his staff are very friendly and welcoming. Over the course of the last year I’ve personally attended many events that Kim has been involved with either speaking , attending, or sponsoring. I’m honored to have Kim Richardson as a member of our Industry Advisory Board. For me personally he has been an amazing mentor and a good friend.
