There are many unique challenges to becoming a school bus driver. More than drivers of any other type of commercial vehicle, school bus drivers must exercise exceptional care in performing their duties. Adding an “S” endorsement to your Illinois commercial driver’s license (CDL) requires adequate training from a credible source. This third free CDL School Bus practice test continues to help you build the essential skills. The practice test is part of our CDL School Bus practice test series. 3 Illinois residents are using our tests to enhance their driving skills. While you might get stuck in your travels at Midway International, you can use the practice test to overcome your learning barriers.

Our CDL School Bus practice test quickly identifies your knowledge gaps and provides the required information to fill them. This capability is a helpful feature of the practice test that helps you meet some of the requirements for becoming a school bus driver, including passing an official School Bus knowledge test and a skills test exhibiting your ability to operate this type of vehicle. Also, you must possess a Passenger (P) endorsement on your CDL and meet any additional requirements of your specific school district. The official knowledge test requires you to correctly answer at least 80% of its 20 questions to pass. Using the practice test, you can assess your current knowledge level and be directed to the information to increase it. The practice test provides comprehensive instruction in language that is easy to understand and absorb.
