If you already have your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) and you have not passed the Arkansas DMV Air Brakes Knowledge Test and an on-the-road Skills Test in an air brake-equipped vehicle, you may have noticed the restriction “L” on your license. Until you’ve passed these tests, you can’t legally drive any CMV equipped with air brakes (which is just about every rig worth driving!). If you fail either test, you’ll face a one-day waiting period and a retest fee. Our Arkansas CDL Air Brakes Practice Tests are built to help you ace the official exam on your first go, cutting down on fees and time.
From the flat Delta farmlands to the winding switchbacks of the Ozarks and Ouachitas, the roads of Arkansas will certainly test your skills. Routes like I-49, I-40, and Highway 67 all require careful handling of air brakes, especially when you’re hauling freight downhill (and especially in inclement weather).
That little letter “L” can cost you job opportunities. Major Arkansas employers like Georgia-Pacific, J.B. Hunt in Lowell, Tyson Foods in Springdale, and Walmart Transportation in Bentonville all require drivers qualified on air brakes. The same goes for Arrow Coach, Jefferson Lines, and the thousands of school buses that run across the state. Without air brake certification, you’re missing out on a lot of job opportunities.
The official test is based on the Arkansas CDL Manual (Section 5), as are the practice tests our experts have carefully prepared. You’ll need to score at least 80 percent on multiple-choice questions covering air brake components, proper inspection and leak testing, using the brakes safely on grades, and recognizing and responding to system warnings. After passing the written portion, you’ll also have to pass the skills test, which includes inspecting the air system, testing pressure buildup, checking for leaks, and safely handling an air brake-equipped CMV.
Our Arkansas CDL Air Brakes Practice Tests mirror the official test format, offering real-time feedback on every question. These tests are designed for efficiency, removing all the unnecessary (and untested) fluff you might find in other study materials. Once you’ve got a handle on this practice test, try another one here: https://driving-tests.org/arkansas/ar-cdl-air-brake-practice-test/.
You should also explore our series of Endorsement Practice Tests to add even more marketability and job options with your CDL. Check one out here: https://driving-tests.org/arkansas/ar-cdl-hazmat-practice-test/. Lastly, consider obtaining a Class A CDL, which gives you the legal standing to operate tractor-trailers and other combination vehicles. We have tools for that as well: https://driving-tests.org/arkansas/ar-cdl-combination-test/.
