Free 2013 CDL Practice Tests
They say that “practice makes perfect” and taking the CDL practice test is a great way to prepare for taking this important test. The actual CDL exam can be quite difficult, thus, taking time to undergo studying will make sure that you know your information.
Why take CDL practice tests?
Many people learn best in a hands on capacity, so embarking upon license test training is one of the best ways that you can prepare for the CDL testing. If you think about it, most skills are learned by actually doing them, not by reading a book or talking about them. Repetition is a key part of learning, so if you are repeating the test over and over again this will greatly enhance your ability to learn the material that you need to know.
Find reliable CDL test answers
In order to learn how to take a CDL license test, you need to find reliable test answers. This means finding a good source of free practice tests. The best place to access these tests is from the test writers themselves. However, keep in mind that the writers may not always have CDL practice tests available.
Avoid using a source that has old CDL tests. Rules and laws are always changing, and old CDL practice tests will not give you the information that you need to pass the current exams. You want a free CDL test that is as close to the real thing as possible. If you cannot find an original source of the CDL test, look for a company that uses the actual CDL test to create their own CDL practice test. Ask them how frequently they update their tests and when the last update was done.
How to take the test
Before you take your CDL license test, you will want to review your CDL information. Most testing centers will offer a booklet of information for you to study. You should read this through a couple of times to learn the information.
Most of the CDL permit practice tests you will find are online. This makes it easy to take the test, and get the results back right away. Once you have received the results, review the test questions again, paying close attention to the ones that you got wrong. Some CDL practice tests will tell you what the right answer was, but if not, look up in your information booklet to find the right test.
Depending on how well you did on your first few practices, you may want to redo the test a couple of times after reviewing the information. This will help you to remember what the correct answer is. Keep reviewing the questions that you got wrong to help yourself learn what the correct answers are.
Keep in mind that many practice tests are free, but you will likely have to pay for the real CDL test. Because of this, you should get comfortable with taking the test before going in for the real thing. That way, you will not waste your time and money taking a test that you are not ready for.

I took my PA CDL knowledge and airbrake tests today and passed on the first try. I used the free CDL tests that you offer and can say that they were a big contributor to passing. I will use them for other endorsements in the future. Would recommend them to anyone. Thanks
Very helpful, I’ll take my CDL written test tomorrow! I am 100% confident I’ll pass, Thanks!
hi i was recently layed off and cant find a job, most jobs available are truck driving, so i found this site and the test are great, i hope to take my test soon and start working to support my family. thank you and for your site for help, especially those of us that dont have money to throw around .
I studied using all 6 practice tests all weekend. I went into my school today after just enrolling this past Friday and said I was ready to test for my permit. My teacher looked at me funny and sent to our DMV. I had to retake my class C and M1 with the rest of the test. I took 7 test and passed them all the first try. I think even the DMV guy was impressed. Thanks to this website, it made testing easy for me. Thank you.
I have been out of trucking like 20+ years now. (almost 3 million SAFE miles). Still carry my CDL. Took ALL the tests working off of just Memory/Experience. Was hard to believe that I could still pass ALL but one of the tests this many years later, without even picking up a book. WOW!!!
You sure know how to help out those that are getting into the “life”… ~~~ Kudos to The Truckers Report!!! ~~~
Thank YOU also for making these test 100% FREE, as I have seen all the ones that are money hungry…
To YOU All that are entering the business: KEEP LEARNING & Taking the Practice Tests!!! Practice makes Perfect…. Good Luck!!!!
I had to take general, air brake and combo for getting my permit to drive for cr england. in combination with the material i had, these tests were invaluable to me and i passed them all first try. use em!
my name is wes. i work for a movig company and my boss wanted me to get my cdl. i found this site and did every test a million times. (actually i only took them over a period of 2 days) anyway, i went to dmv this morning and took general ,brakes, & combination, and passed first try. this is the best tool o the internet. thank you
Love this! i wish they had a practice test for the passenger and school bus endorsements
I used the practice tests, and I passed my general knowledge, air brake, and combination tests all on the first try. I’m really thankful for the chance to study and practice test before walking into DMV.
I studied using the CDL Practice Test the Combination portion until I was able to pass it at least 10 times straight with 100% score each time which took about a day and a half. Then I felt confident about taking the test at the DMV, I went the very next day and PASSED only missing one question which wasn’t on none of the practice test. It was very helpful and I am thankful for the CDL Pratice Test and now I am working on my Combination. Whish me LUCK!
Works great!!! a few answers will trick you and thats good. waas having trouble passing the GK but this time I passed my GK the first time. (LOL) Awsome job guys thanks a whole buch! I have E-Mailed it to my other two brothers (they liked it) and my wife is taking the CDL as well and she passed it! time and money saver!
Passed my airbrakes test with ease using this practice test. Had to take General Knowledge twice. The questions on here are not close to the same as the Florida CDL test. It did have a few questions on there from this site. Make sure that you read through the book to KNOW for a fact that you will pass. This is only a practice test and not the real test. Overall this site is very helpful.
This is a great way to learn and test your knowledge. My husband and I took the practices tests (air brakes, general knowledge, and hazmat) as many times as it took to get 100% and everytime you take any of the practice test there was different questions all mixed up! will be testing in Missouri will follow up with results!!
i recently took my general knowledge test this website was real helpful i took your test and what ever answer i got wrong i went back to the commercial drives manual and studied …thanks for making it it free and east to study…i passed easily..thanks
I have been taking the GK, Airbrakes, & Combination practice tests for a week now and go in tomorrow morning for the real test.I live in Texas am feeling very confident in myself !I will post results.I love have with every time you take the test it gives you different questions!
I passed the IL General Knowladge, Air Brakes and, Combo endorsements THE FIRST TIME with the help of this:D
Im working on my Haz Mat, 2/3, and Tanks now…
Thanks to this I have a new career ahead of me:D
Thank you very much
this site is great an very helpful!!!!!!!!
Great web site!!!!!!!
Took my CDL A and AIR BRAKES tests today and pass with flying colors.
I recommend this web site to all.
Thank you very much.
Sam
are most questions that are on this test on the same one for dmv?
The questions aren’t exactly the same, but the knowledge you are being tested on is the same and you will recognize the questions at the DMV. If you can reliably score 85% on the timed tests on here then you will have no problem passing the real thing.
I failed all three test general, airbrake and combination. Then I discovered this website and practiced the test. Past all three the second time. I would recommend this site to anyone wishing to pass.
passed my test first time, i went to take it. never even opened a book, and i never studied.good test
Please don’t be like Steve. Your life and the lives of others on the road depend on you knowing the contents of your CDL handbook, not just passing the test. If you haven’t studied how to react in emergency situations, your mistakes will kill people.
Hi Samuel all Steve is trying to say its easier to learn thru website than book and I agree ,I used this and another website to learn questions it’s same as real test ,they don’t give you right answers took me 3 weeks of study great website I learned a lot
This is a Great test if you are going for your CDL. This site helped me more than the book, I passed all General Knowledge, Air Brakes and Combination Vehicles exams on the first try! It is the best practice test on the web!
I had over 90% of the exact question on all of my tests.Great training and test prep material. Passed all of my endorsements.
Passed cdl permit first try yesterday. Took tank endorsement for future “just in case.” Getting on with Knight Refrigerated to get some training and experience under my belt. Hope all goes well.
FYI: One does not need to have a CDL to transport hazmat materials. BUT they must have a hazmat endorsment if there is a RQ of any material on board any vehicle or vessal . Other than that I found all the study material very help full. I went through the hazmat, air breaks, doubles practice test for about 3 hours to prepar foe recertification and teaching purposes. Highly recommand this to anyone preparing to test in any state!
I just passed my permit test and I took the general knowledge, airbrakes, combinations and doubles and triples. I used this website. Very nice and knowledgeable. Thanks.
I recently studied the DMV hand book and struggled with passing the general knowledge test, so I decided to get some on line help for my endorsements. I took your practice test for the air brakes as well as the tanker and was able to pass both with flying colors. I highly recommend your site to any one wishing to become a cdl driver.
I have been taking the Hazmat practice tests for the last few days and found it very helpful. I took my test today and PASSED on the FIRST attempt. The time that I spent on this website in my mind is a HUGE reason that I was able to pass on the first attempt. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SITE to anyone that is getting ready to take ANY of the CDL tests. If this site can’t get you ready, NOBODY CAN!
Yall know this is probly the best practice test Iv seen. Make sure to read up on what you need for your hazmat app and fingerprints. bring correct payment type aswell. In ohio you only have to get a percentage right on the test then it kicks you off and says you passed. Good luck and thanks! be safe
I’ve helped my husband pass his CDL test by studying from this site!! I am ready to take the test myself…..This practice test has been very helpful!! Thanks
Thanks “This CDL pretest really WORKS…….PASS first try 100% WOW!!!!!!!
These tests have been an asset to prepairing for my cdl. thanx alot
Your website was incredibly helpful in allowing me to pass my tests. Thank you very much for such a well put together website.
Went and put HazMat back on license. Tried to read and study CDL manual. Was like watching paint dry in a room with someone running their finger nails down a chalkboard. Took your practice test, then reviewed areas I missed. Did this a few times until I passed your test with 100% every time. Then went too test at DL office. Passed without any struggles, on first try.
Thank You very much for putting this together.
Rick
i just came home from dds and i got my endorsments thanks to this site . all i have to say is this site rocks !!!!! thanks!!!
well took the hazmat practice test and all i can say is back to the books lol got a 63% and not studied anything yet.
Thanks for making this site free, it really helped. I just passed my General, Air-brake, and combination at the DMV all with 90%s or better. I still needed to read the manual, but it just helped to build comfidents and show me what I need to try and pay closer attention to. Thank you!
I used the general knowlege practice test to help prepare my self for the real thing. I was fortunate enough to pass it on my second try and I do not think it would have been possible without the practice test. Now im studying fo the air brake test and plan on using the pratice test fot that and the conbination exam as well. I also plan on using the practice test to help me get ready for other endorcements.Because it works!
Just took the general knowledge, combination, air brake test today and passed with flying colors!
I’ve been doing these practice tests at work at night while waiting for drivers to return and have to say they are incredibly helpful! I don’t have any set time to take a CDL test, but I am glad these are here to learn with. I actually surprised myself by passing the general knowledge test without even reading anything prior. Thanks for having these available and free!
very helpful you pass these practice tests you will pass DMV test with no problem!!!
I have been trucking for almost 30 yrs, I found this site to help get ready to renew my haz-mat endorsement. It really helped out.I figure you can never know to much about your job, so I went ahead and took all the practice test,I passed them all,but I realized how much I had forgot, or didnt know. Good luck to all you folks just getting started in a industry (lifestyle) I still love after all these miles and years.
Great material, its been very helpful.
Great material passed my class A CDL with without failing it once. Very helpful website. thanks to all. and good luck to everybody.
Best put together website i have found by leaps and bounds. i do however wish it had a pretrip inspection test
Have been using your tests and I want to thank you for making them available. I have been driving with a Class A with Hazmat and Tanker endorsements for 8 years. Now I have a job opportunity that requires a Passenger Endorsement. So I’m thinking I will try for the School Bus Endorsement at the same time. I did not realize that DVM practically makes you go thru the whole CDL process all over again. I thought it would be just a written test like Hazmat or Tanker. Wow was I wrong. It seems that the General Knowledge, along with Air Brakes, Passenger, School Bus AND Pre Trip Vehicle Inspection, On-road Driving, Basic Vehicle Skills Test and Transporting Cargo are all required – AGAIN! Just thought someone else might need to know.
As some one mentioned earlier it would be great if you could add other tests, i.e. school bus???
Thanks again.
Took general knowledge test and passed on the first try thanks to TruckersReport, great to use to study alot of the question were on the test. I’m really excited on taking the other 2 tests tomorrow.
Passed 1st time no problem ,great site
ALL I CAN SAY IS WITH OUT YOUR HELP OF DOING WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR ALL OF US I KNOW I WOULD NOT HAVE PASSED ALL THE TESTS TODAY ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT .ALONG WITH THE COMMERCIAL HAND BOOK FOR CA. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. THE TRUCKERS REPORT ROCKS.
Very, very helpful. Reading the chapters helps, at least once. But taking these tests here are as accurate as the test at the BMV.
Thank you!!!!
