HI CDL Passenger Vehicles Practice Test 3 2026

The Aloha State is renowned for its tourism and has one of the most unusual passenger transportation environments in the country. Across Honolulu, Hilo, Kona, Maui, Kauai, Molokai, and Lanai, their resort roadways, airport shuttles, tour buses, school transportation networks, hotel transportation, and community routes offer lots of opportunities to commercial driver’s license (CDL) holders with a Passenger "P" Endorsement. You’ll need this endorsement if you plan to drive a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) designed to transport 16 or more passengers (including yourself). To obtain the endorsement, you must pass the state’s Passenger Transport Test. The required passing score is 80%. If you fail, you’ll need to wait seven days before retesting and may have to pay an additional fee. Our Hawaii DMV CDL Passenger Endorsement Practice Tests help you avoid that by presenting the tested material in the same multiple-choice structure as the official exam, helping to familiarize you with the sometimes-tricky wording you will face. Our content experts have removed unnecessary material and focused our exams on the actual tested material to help ensure you pass your official exam on the first attempt.

You must also pass the Air Brakes knowledge test if the bus has air brakes (and most passenger transit companies require them). Also, if you haven’t already, you must pass the skills tests in the class of passenger vehicle you plan to operate. Our practice tests help you prepare for that as well. Our Hawaii DMV Air Brakes Practice Tests are just the tool you need to pass that exam, which will remove any air brakes restrictions from your CDL.

The P endorsement knowledge exam tests your understanding of vehicle inspections, loading, on-route safety, and after-shift responsibilities. You are expected to know how to inspect the service brakes, parking brake, steering, lights, reflectors, tires, horn, windshield wipers, mirrors, wheels, rims, coupling devices, and emergency equipment. You must also inspect the inside of the bus, making sure all features are ready for use.

You’ll also need to know how to load passengers safely, handle carry-on baggage, follow hazardous materials restrictions on buses, recognize the standee line, manage disruptive passengers, make smooth starts and stops, and use brake-door interlocks correctly. With AI-powered features like our Challenge Bank™ and interactive CDL Manual, our practice tests take the guesswork out of what is needed.
