Vermont DMV Test FAQ

In most states you can get a CDL at 18 for driving within your state (intrastate). You must be 21 to drive across state lines, carry passengers, or haul hazardous materials. Check your state's CDL manual for exact rules.

Yes. You first pass the knowledge tests to get a Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP), practice with a CDL holder in the vehicle, and in most states must hold the CLP at least 14 days before taking the skills test.

Everyone takes General Knowledge. Class A adds Combination Vehicles, and Air Brakes if your vehicle has them. Class B adds Air Brakes. Endorsements (HazMat, Tanker, Passenger, School Bus, Doubles/Triples) each add their own test - see the path picker at the top of this page.

Typically 50 questions, and most states require 80% to pass. Endorsement tests are shorter (usually 20-30 questions, same 80% bar). Your state's CDL manual lists the exact numbers.

Yes - a TSA security threat assessment (fingerprints and background check), and the endorsement must be renewed periodically. Start the TSA step early; it can take several weeks.

No. We are exam prep only: our practice tests get you ready for the state knowledge tests. Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) for first-time Class A/B applicants must be completed with an FMCSA-registered training provider.

Vermont CDL Practice Test Guide: General Knowledge & Endorsements

Vermont trucking means grades, weather, and cargo that cannot wait, so preparation is everything. Start with one of the free Vermont CDL practice tests above, no login required, and you will quickly feel how the real thing is built. The CDL general knowledge exam runs 50 questions, and you need 40 correct to pass, which works out to 80 percent. That number is a federal FMCSA standard, the same for every driver in every state, not a Vermont rule.

Worth clearing up early: this general knowledge test is also the written exam for your CDL permit, the Commercial Learner’s Permit. A Vermont CDL permit practice test and a general knowledge practice test cover the exact same ground. Class A, B, and C applicants all take this one written test. Your class comes from the vehicle and the skills test you complete, so no matter which license you are chasing, the writing portion looks the same.

The endorsements are where Vermont’s working roads show up. Dairy is the state’s signature, and milk tanker hauling is real, ongoing work, which makes the Tanker endorsement a natural fit alongside the surge and slosh you learn to control. Logging and timber, plus granite and marble from the quarries, keep heavy combination rigs rolling, so Air Brakes and Combination Vehicles matter here. Then there are the Green Mountains, with genuine grades on I-89 and I-91 where mountain-grade braking, proper gear selection on long descents, and knowing how to avoid overheating your brakes separate the ready from the sorry. Hard winters and heating-oil delivery keep tanker drivers out in the cold months too. Every endorsement is its own knowledge test: Air Brakes, Combination Vehicles, HazMat, Tanker, Doubles and Triples, Passenger, and School Bus.

Lean on the Vermont Commercial Driver’s Manual as your study guide, and let the practice tests tell you where to reread. Cover vehicle inspection top to bottom, basic control, shifting, space and speed management, reading hazards, and emergency moves like recovering from a skid on ice. Once your scores hold steady, schedule your CDL skills test with the Vermont DMV and get on the road.
