- Perfect for first-time and renewal CDL/CLP applicants, and those adding endorsements
- Based on 2025 IN commercial driver's license manual
- Triple-checked for accuracy
- Updated for August 2025
You are likely already familiar with the urban Indianapolis and Fort Wayne areas as well as the open flatlands and winding roads around the Wabash and Ohio rivers, so adding the Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) Endorsement to your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) is a great step toward increasing your marketability and job potential here in Indiana. The Hazmat endorsement permits drivers to transport materials that the U.S. government has judged hazardous. Let’s dive into more detail about how the Hazmat endorsement opens up new opportunities and potentially higher pay!
The newly added responsibilities that come with the Hazmat endorsement are taken very seriously. The endorsement process alone includes several hurdles to ensure your safety and protect the people and environment. But don’t worry. Because of the added opportunities and the need for this skill set, we have streamlined the process for you!
First, you’ll need to pass a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) fingerprinting and background check. While you wait for the results, study and practice for the second hurdle: the BMV knowledge test. The knowledge test addresses federal regulations, substance handling, material packaging, quantity limits, and transport configurations for hazardous materials. You’ll need a score of 80% on Indiana’s knowledge test, which is made up of 30 questions (Indiana CDL Handbook 2025).
If all this sounds a little overwhelming, it doesn’t have to be. We’ve designed our online Indiana BMV Hazmat Endorsement practice tests to avoid any extraneous information you’d find by online search and mimic what you will face on the official BMV test. We also provide immediate feedback on each response so you can learn as you go instead of waiting until the end for needed corrections.
Hazardous materials transported in the Hoosier State include petroleum products, industrial chemicals, compressed gasses, fertilizers and agricultural chemicals, and hazardous waste. There are many high-level organizations in Indiana that require the endorsement for cargo transport. Cummins Inc. (Columbus), Eli Lilly and Company (Indianapolis), Indiana Michigan Power (Fort Wayne), BP (British Petroleum) (Whiting), and ArcelorMittal (East Chicago) are just some of a substantive list of new opportunities. There are simply too many opportunities to ignore.
Once you receive your TSA results and feel ready, you’ll visit the BMV with the necessary documents, pay the fees, and pass the test with flying colors.
