Like putting on your seat belt before pulling out of your driveway, there are several safety precautions a commercial driver must take before getting on the road. One of the most important safety-related tasks is a pre-trip inspection of the vehicle. Your ability to perform pre-trip inspections must be demonstrated while applying for a commercial driver’s license (CDL). A checklist, including various components such as tire pressure, fluid levels, brakes, and headlights, will help you through the inspection process. Safety is a top priority for traveling along Interstate 40 through Little Rock and beyond, and it’s your responsibility to make sure the standards are met. Most importantly, you need to make sure that you understand this process before applying for a CDL.
There are several qualifications that you need to meet before getting a Arkansas CDL, including your ability to perform a pre-trip inspection. Your ability to perform the pre-trip inspection will be evaluated by an examiner and included in your Arkansas DMV General Knowledge Test. A firm grasp of the pre-trip inspection process will increase your chance of passing the official knowledge test and prepare you to demonstrate that skill. Our Arkansas DMV Pre-Trip Inspection Practice Test will supply you with comprehensive instruction, preparing you to excel in performing a pre-trip inspection. The official knowledge test requires you to answer 80% of the 20 questions correctly to receive a passing score. For the best preparation possible, the practice test uses questions similar to those on the official knowledge test.

It’s not enough to memorize the answers to the official knowledge test using a study guide. Therefore, the CDL Pre-Trip Inspection Practice Test explains the safety principles involved. The practice test is based on the most recent Arkansas DMV CDL manual (Arkansas CDL Handbook 2026) and up to date as of January 2026. It contains 20 multiple-choice questions to assess your knowledge of pre-trip inspections and help you with the elements you don’t know or understand. If you get a question wrong, the practice test will provide a detailed explanation of the correct answer. Using the practice test, you will prepare to correctly answer the questions about pre-trip inspections on the official knowledge test and confidently perform an inspection for the examiner. Knowledge of pre-trip inspections will benefit you each day that you put your vehicle on the road. Many lives and valuable time can be saved by performing this simple task.
