    Check out Idaho's DMV website, or google search for it.

    Here in Cali it was:

    General Knowledge - 50 questions, could miss 10

    Air Brakes - 25 questions, could miss 5

    Combination Vehicle - 25 question, could miss 4

    man dont sweat that. the test is all common sense really. if you have been reading the book and taking the practice tests and doing good with them, it is a breeze.

    Here's what I did... Get your smart phone and look up Christ cdl practice exams. While you are waiting to sit in for your exam you can take a bunch of exams for free!! I studied for the permit for about 6 hours spread over 3 days. It was mostly common cents but you got to know what common cents looks like!! Familiar your self with the material and you will get your permit!! Good luck!!

    Or you can take the test fluke it and take it again. It is no big deal.

    Here are my results for that Crist sites general knowledge practice test. 28 missed out of 165 questions. There are some School bus questions in there that I had not expected. I will do the combo, and airbrake tests in a while.
