Kentucky CDL Class A Practice Test 2025

Perfect for first-time and renewal CDL/CLP applicants, and those adding endorsements.

Welcome to our Kentucky CDL Class A Practice Test, an intuitive tool designed to help you learn commercial driving theory. This practice test closely reflects the content and format of the official written knowledge test, so you’ll know what to expect on exam day. It consists of 93 multiple-choice questions based on the Kentucky Commercial Driver License Manual (Kentucky CDL Handbook 2025), an official resource published by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). You must score 80% or higher to pass, leaving little room for error.

Beginners unfamiliar with commercial driving theory are more likely to make mistakes and fail at their first few attempts. We give you the opportunity to learn from your mistakes as soon as they occur, so you won’t have to wait until the practice test ends to know what went wrong. A detailed explanation of the correct answer is provided for each question. You should note this feedback in a notebook or notebook app and revisit the material during future training sessions.

Our automated assistant, “Officer Frank,” can provide personalized assistance at your request. Stuck on a difficult question? Ask for a hint that nudges you in the right direction without revealing the correct answer. If you have difficulty understanding a question, this AI coach can make it easier to understand by rephrasing it for you. We regularly update this practice test (most recently for November 2025) to reflect the latest updates brought by KSP rules or state law. However, you should always check the official KY KSP website for the most up-to-date information.

With unlimited attempts and nonstop access, you can train with this practice test whenever your schedule allows. Run a quick session on your lunch break or while waiting in line at your favorite coffee shop. Your progress will be automatically saved as long as you’re not in private browsing mode. If you must interrupt an active practice session, you can resume it later from the last question you answered.

Becoming a safe and responsible commercial driver takes time and effort. Start today and dedicate a few days to studying the basic aspects in the official commercial driver license manual. Use our Kentucky CDL Class A Practice Test regularly in the weeks that follow and master this subject one question at a time.

Came across driving-tests.
I came across driving-tests.org, and their process and the way they had you do the studying and the tests made the world of difference for, like, both feeling confident and then, you know, the material, but also, like, being able to discern in the question, like, what they're actually after, and finding the best possible answer. Coming to the test today after using this versus the first two times, I felt way more confident, and I think I only missed, like, three questions or four questions on all three tests that I had to take today. So I highly recommend this anyone trying to get their CDL.

Excellent.
Well, wasn't the first time I used driving-tests.org to prepare to write driving test exam. I used in KY to take my CDL and HME written exams and passed both excellent. This was the reason I returned driving-tests.org to prepare for GA HME endorsement. I followed driving-tests.org recommendations and went through all practice tests and was 100% ready. The written exam on 8/31/2022 was a breeze. It took me less than 10 minutes to finish. I could have obtained a 100% score but due to my own carelessness / mind laziness / arrogance, I got one question wrong. I will always recommend driving-tests.org to people. Thank you driving-tests.org!

I'm in the process of getting Hazmat….
I'm in the process of getting Hazmat and Motorcycle endorsements on my license. I obviously had many choices but I felt like this was my best option. I'm using the site and website, both seem to be slightly different as to what they offer. Look carefully and if you're going to choose just one, I would probably go with website, as it has a course (video) that can be completed and results sent to DMV. I Really Appreciate That FEATURE!
JD
Very thorough.
Well written tests with hints and answers which bring an understanding that sinks in so that you remember. Very thorough videos that are packed with all the info you can stand. A learning path is laid out for you so that as you progress you can sense a mastery of the CDL profession.

The #1 Driving Test Website In The Country!
Driving-tests.org is the best driving test website in the country why? Because everything on this website is explained in full detail and I love the fact that everything is in order. Unlike the very confusing drivers manuals in each state with driving-tests.org everything is in order again especially with the membership. The air brakes test, the General Knowledge Test, the combination vehicle test, and Etc is in order. The driver's manual is very confusing to have all the answers scattered out through the entire book which is ridiculous and it makes it harder for the person that studying any drivers test to pass and the DMV knows that.
MR
Awesome App.
I studied the manual and felt prepared to pass the CDL exam. I took it on 1/10/19 and failed it twice. I was discouraged but started to research online for test applications. I ran into The Driving Test app and gave it a chance. I studied the test examples for over 9 hours. Went to DMV late afternoon on 1/11/19 to retake the test and passed it on the first try. the site is simply amazing!
