If you’re in Connecticut, this free CDL school bus practice test is for you!

School buses represent a vital part of Connecticut’ education system, transporting thousands of students to and from school. There are strict regulations governing bus maintenance, driver qualification, and general safety, all of which all aspiring school bus drivers should be aware of.

Connecticut experiences a variety of weather conditions, including snow and ice during the winter months. As a school bus driver, the safety of your passengers is in your hands. Even with regular maintenance and snow plowing, it is crucial that you fully master the controls of your vehicle. That’s why the right to drive a school bus is not given lightly.

Typically, school buses come with several unique safety features. They are equipped with stop arms and flashing lights, which alert and instruct other drivers to stop when a bus is picking up or dropping off students. To operate a school bus in Connecticut, you’ll need a School Bus (S) endorsement on your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). A Passenger Vehicles (P) endorsement is also necessary if the school bus you intend to drive is designed to transport 16 ore more occupants, including yourself. Both endorsements are obtained after passing their respective knowledge exams, as well as a CDL skills test in a school bus.

Because they closely reflect the actual written exam, students use our practice tests to get familiar with its content and format. By practicing and preparing weeks in advance, you’ll eliminate any anxiety and nervousness that often appear on the day of the exam. Consisting of 20 questions based on the School Bus endorsement, our tests offer a great way of evaluating your knowledge. Once you consistently achieve passing scores, you can confidently take the official written exam, knowing it will be similar to your practice sessions.

Alternatively, our tests can also be used as an educational tool. After each question, immediate feedback is provided with a detailed explanation of the correct answer. It helps you identify mistakes and understand the meaning behind the right answer. While there are multiple answer choices to each question, remember that only one is correct. Since there is no timer to pressure you, it is recommended to read every question carefully before you make a choice.
