Nevada CDL Combination Vehicles: Uncoupling Test 2026

Separating a tractor from a trailer without dropping or damaging it takes a precise sequence, and the uncoupling drill teaches that order for the Nevada combination test. You review lowering the landing gear, disconnecting the air and electrical lines, releasing the fifth-wheel lock, and easing the tractor out from under the trailer. It builds the CDL combination uncoupling procedure Nevada expects in 2026.

Expect questions on securing the trailer before you release anything, why the landing gear must carry the weight first, and how to park the rig so nothing shifts once you pull clear on a Nevada lot.

The number of uncoupling questions is decided by the state, so verify it in your Nevada CDL Manual before you sit the exam. Rehearse this sequence until each step feels routine and safe, then test yourself against the coupling drill to prove you know the process both ways.
