    Does anyone know the dimensions/layout of the skills tests required to get your cdl? Or know where I could find them?
    I want to get my cdl and would like to practice the manueverability tests in my own truck and trailer but I am having a hard time finding out information on how to setup the cones.

    You might try just calling the local DMV tester. Explain that you want to practice, and see what they say. Other wise, it was just basic driving skills for my test.

    Look in section 12.1 of the Ohio Commercial Driver License Handbook.

    I found the dimensions. I had an old cdl handbook which doesnt have the dimensions listed in section 12. I looked in a current handbook from the license bureau and the diagram in section 12 shows them. thanks for the help!
