AK CDL Pre-Trip Inspection Practice Test 2 2026

Original questions by our team Based on 2026 AK CDL Handbook
6 min

Every aspiring commercial driver must learn how to properly perform a pre-trip inspection. This inspection is a safety check that must be completed at the start of your shift to ensure the vehicle is in working condition. You should do it the same way each time to make it easier to remember. The pre-trip inspection covers critical vehicle components, including the brakes, steering mechanism, emergency equipment, seat belt, and mirrors. Because there are so many items to remember, many students find this portion of the CDL skills test more difficult than they expected.

Our Alaska CDL Pre-Trip Inspection Practice Tests are designed to help you overcome that challenge. Now you’re about to take the second practice test in this series. It includes questions similar to those you will encounter on the official General Knowledge Exam, specifically those related to the pre-trip inspection. Each question comes with a simple explanation that breaks down the correct answer in a way that is easy to understand. This feedback is provided immediately after you select an answer, so we recommend noting it in a notebook or notebook app before proceeding to the next question.
