Cheat sheet for cdl written test

Okay then I just thought I would post a sheet here that can be used to take your written test in case like me you have a bad memory . I believe the written test for permit is closed book bu the cdl test and renewal are open book . I think that endorsement tests may also be closed book . So I made this just as a quick answer sheet easier than looking an answer up in the book .
Feel free to modify this and add in more answers you fell will be on a test and post it .

they give written and computer tests here . I never used a book in this county as long ago they stopped having open book for class C but a driver where I worked said to go to another county and they allow open book . It says on the website that permit tests are closed book . Says nothing about regular tests and it says endorsements are closed book .
Another odd thing I notice all over is that there are a lot of practice tests . None I have seen even come close to the real test . Many questions not covered . I actually paid 15 last night straight from the dept revenue cdl site here for 100 practice question s they say will allow to pass test . WRONG ! no questions about lengths time to stop , dui suspension times , death tolls , brake test times psi .. a lot of things that are on this test . Our test is I think 143 I think questions long . Very ridiculous . No one needs to know penalties for tickets or death tolls do to speeding ... to drive . Should not be on the test . Of course they also have things like check your load after 25 miles which we all know is now wrong it is 50 . but you get it wrong if you answer it right here .

Well anyway even if you can not use this in the test it makes a good quick read before taking it while you are waiting . I read the book 2 times before going to bed , once in morning and once right before I walked in the door and failed it 2 times on the computer and then took written test and passed , or maybe just allowed to pass who knows . But it should be open book . I did not pass it and I get NO tickets . clean mvr almost the time . One ticket when first started driving . 8 years now .

 

I do not know if different states have different tests but ours have a lot of crazy questions with numbers , facts ... this sis why I posted this . If people will add to it the questions that have less obvious answers that are on tests they have taken it will aid people in studying for their test . My memory is not good enough to remember exactly what was on the tests that I did not really know the answers to but I put in the ones that I thought would be helpful.
I will try and remember some more of the difficult ones when I go take my test in a few days . They should give up the test results when you get an answer wrong so you can review that . But they refuse to .
