CDL testing in CA

I am trying to find a downloadable (PDF format) DVIR that I can attach to the DMV sheet so it prints double sided. Does anyone have one that they would be willing to share?

I would also like to hear from those who are or were instructors or examiners for CA DMV to get their input?

 

OK. Same topic, new question:

CDL Skills test in CA? Which skills are the examiners likely to ask for:

1) Straight Line Backing
2) Offset Parking/Backing (Driver's side)
3) Offset Parking/Backing (Passenger side)
4) Parallel Parking (Driver's Side)
5) Parallel Parking (Passenger Side)
6) Alley Dock (Driver's Side)
7) Alley Dock (Passenger Side)

Does the examiner care if it's pretty, or just that you accomplish the goal without knocking down any cones? How many pull-ups, get out and looks do we get?

 

I am worried about which skills I should continue to practice. I am within the zone on straight line backing, and can do offset to either side cleanly, but not pretty, and can do driver's side parallel parking, but not passenger side.

I got to where I am basically from repeating each one for literally hours each. I have not started with Alley docking like the others, but I think by attacking it the same way as the others, I should be able to get it. I have roughly 2 weeks left of school before testing.

I know the idea is to hit ZERO cones, but how many can we hit and if we roll over the base of a cone without knocking it down, does it count as a knocked cone?

I understand the goal of the training is to get to the point where I am knowledgeable enough and skilled enough to pass the test; but I would be lying if I said that my goal was to 'just' pass it. I would be aiming for as few points knocked off as possible. I do NOT want to do the test more than once.... 'One and Done' then I can go to orientation for a company (which I have basically decided and will discuss in another thread).

 

Same subject; different question:

Last week, I went ahead and took the knowledge questions for the Tanker and Doubles/Triples endorsements. I also signed up to take the HazMat, even though I haven't been fingerprinted yet. I had planned on taking this knowledge test on Friday when I am there taking the skills test. Assuming I am 'one and done' on the skills test and pass the knowledge test, will DMV go ahead and issue me a temporary CDL and wait to mail my 'real' one until I do my fingerprinting?

 

No. I have my permit, since getting it, I tested additionally for the endorsements except for Hazmat.
