California drivers: what happens if you fail the CDL test 3 times?

You should request your school to spend more time with you and get some more practice. You have two days. And this may sound like a cliche but go into the test already knowing you passed. Remove all negativity from your mind. I know it's much easier said than done but do trust me it will help you.

 

Trks have 3 tries,what if the fee for retesting and does the same law apply to a regular DL?

 

3rd time failure. That's life WO parolle. You might have to wait a month to retake it.

 

In ca it's the same thing, reg- or CDL license

 

If you fail the CDL test 3 times... umm.. truckin prolly ain't for you. Personally I don't want you on the road with me. Its kinda like skydiving, if at first you don't succeed its prolly not the job for you.

 

not quite that harsh,but very funny.

I can see failing once, maybe a 2nd time but for 4th 5th and 6th...well I dont think you need to keep trying. If you cant handle the stress of the test then you might not handle the stress of the real world driving, the test are far easier than some of the stuff you will find on the road.

You have to work on those weak points, and you must go in with a positive attitude and tell yourself your going to get it! Take your time and dont feel rushed, I think dmv allows like 2 hours for the whole process? I did it in maybe 45 minutes and I went in telling myself im going to do it, the parts I was weaker at I took a little extra time. I missed 7 points, a couple from an extra pull up on the parallel and a couple out on the road portion.

 

So if you fail you pay a fee and test again but if you pass you get to drive in California, I'm just not seeing an upside for you.

 

yeah it can suck lol, I drive just in CA. I was helping the walmart fleet in the LA area this past weekend and im glad im going back to my Target gig where I might be in LA a couple times a week, driving around all day is just stressful.

 

I drive in California and sat at the Rainbow weigh station for an hour last week while CHP crawled up my butt with a microscope, no violations they were just prospecting.
