AK CDL Passenger Vehicles Practice Test 3 2026

In the Last Frontier, passenger transportation can mean many different things. You might be taking care of city transit in Anchorage, motor coaches for visitors, airport and hotel shuttles, community transportation, church buses, or service in the more remote areas of the state. If you have your commercial driver’s license (CDL) and plan to drive a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) designed to carry 16 or more people (including the driver), you’ll need a Passenger "P" endorsement. The Passenger endorsement requires the passing of both the Alaska DMV Passenger Transport Test and the Road Skills test (in the class of vehicle you plan to operate). You must also pass the Air Brakes Knowledge Test (if the bus has air brakes), and other specialized endorsements may be necessary. That can feel like a lot at first. But don’t worry. Our Alaska DMV CDL Passenger Endorsement Practice Tests present the tested material in the same multiple-choice structure as the official exam. Our practice tests also familiarize you with the sometimes-tricky wording you will face. In short, our content experts have carefully crafted these exams to help ensure you pass your official exam on the first attempt.

You are expected to know how to inspect the service brakes, parking brake, steering mechanism, lights, reflectors, tires, horn, windshield wipers, mirrors, wheels, rims, coupling devices, and emergency equipment. On the inside of the bus, you must inspect aisles and stairwells, handholds and railings, signaling devices, seats, emergency exit signs, handles, doors, windows, roof hatches, and more.

Our practice tests take the guesswork out of what is needed. You’ll learn that bus drivers must stop between 15 and 50 feet before railroad crossings, look and listen in both directions for an approaching train, and even open the forward door to see and hear more clearly. You must also avoid changing gears while crossing tracks in a manual transmission bus. At drawbridges, you are required to stop at least 50 feet before the draw when there is no signal light or traffic control attendant. A lot to remember!

Our multiple-choice practice tests represent the same structure as the official endorsement exam. Our content experts have removed the fluff often found in other resources so you can focus on what truly matters for the exam. Our interactive, AI-powered Challenge Bank™ remembers any questions you miss and repeats them until you answer them correctly.
