| Topics on written exam Okay, I just got the book today from DMV to study for the written exam. I remember my recruiter telling me not to worry about the Hazmat section. I tried calling him, but he wasn't in right now, so I figured I would ask here. I would assume I don't need to bother studying the hazmat section as of yet? What parts of the book do I need to ignore? I also would imagine the section on driving school buses, right? I really should have wrote down what he told me 2 weeks ago. I THINK he said Air brakes WILL be on the test. Or won't. lol Like I said, I'll be talking to him hopefully later or tomorrow, but I figured I would come here to get a heads up. The book has ALL A, B, and C licenses. I assume just study A? I'm confused. It's a pretty big book to absorb in just a couple of weeks. I am sure there are sections I don't have to look at. Anyone know? Thanks! Billy  |

| To get your permit you will need to study and pass the General Knowledge, Combination Vehicle and Air Brake exams. Don't worry about Hazmat or Busses unless the company that hires you requires those endorsements.  |

| all due respect... Do not be intimidated! The book ain't that big. Read it. Take the quizes at the end of each chapter. Wash, risnse, repeat... If you want to be a trucker, yes you may ignore the school bus part, goes without saying. Air brakes...? What do you think...? You have a very long wrong road ahead of you (Pun intended). But in all seriousness, getting your license is, or should be, a walk in the park compared to what lies ahead. So read, study, LEARN. I wish you all the best. You have come to the right place for information and oppionion though. Rest assured. Welcome aboard!   |

| hazmat... Why not? Key is, whatever you're testing threshhold will permit. But I would reccomend getting any/all endorsements if for no other reason other than it's impressive to perspective employers. What's a few extra bucks and an hour of your time. But of course... your decission. |

 Test to pass ... I just decided to come back to driving myself. When I went to take the test for my AP license I did not study at all. I drove before so how hard could it be? I failed twice and decided to study. It is not hard but you need to read the manual for sure. It might be safer to stop 100 feet before a RR xing, but it is still an incorrect answer. Lots of little unimportant ?s that can cause you to fail. Don't take that the wrong way, I know it is best to know, I understand you need to know. But how many actual feet you do whatever is not as important as knowing how to be safe and not panic. It really does get easier though. Read, do your best, don't sweat it. You will prevail!  |
