Are you a California resident considering a career as a bus driver or the driver of a 9-passenger van? California expects to increase its number of commercial drivers by as much as 20 percent by 2030. This market growth promises exceptional job opportunities for licensed Class A, B, or C California CDL drivers, which is great news! How can you cash in on these opportunities? Preparation.
A ‘P’ endorsement is required on a California CDL for drivers to operate a vehicle that can carry more than 10 people, including the driver. Applicants must pass both a written and a road skills test in a passenger-carrying vehicle to obtain this endorsement on their CDL. The written test is divided into four sections: Driving Safely, Transporting Passengers, Vehicle Inspection, and Basic Control Skills. Successful applicants need to answer 16 of the 20 questions correctly to receive a passing score.
Using this free California CDL Passenger Vehicle Endorsement practice test based on the CDL Manual (California CDL Handbook 2025), you will be equipped with a better resource than a study guide. It is designed to expertly prepare you with successful test-taking skills. The test is presented in a multiple-choice format and contains questions just like those on the actual test and is up to date as of December 2025. It is stress-free because it allows you to learn at your own pace. Additionally, it gives you immediate feedback on your answer to each question. Wrong answers are highlighted with detailed explanations.
