Guides

Four guides for the questions people most often bring to this site. They are frameworks for thinking, not official instructions.

CDL classes A, B and C

What each licence lets you drive, and the common mistake of getting the wrong class for the job you want.

CDL endorsements

Each letter, what it requires, what work it opens — and what a restriction is and how to remove one.

How to get a CDL

The whole sequence in outline: training, medical, permit, wait, skills test, licence.

The CDL skills test

The road half: pre-trip, basic vehicle control, and the drive. This site does not prepare you for it, and says so.
