Whether you’re driving a school bus or a tanker loaded with food-grade liquids, you must perform the mandatory pre-trip inspection at the start of your shift. This procedure is required by law and must be completed by all commercial drivers in the United States. You will usually check the brakes, wheels, emergency equipment, headlights, and the steering mechanism. Because this is one of the most important aspects of commercial driving theory, your knowledge of it will be evaluated during the official General Knowledge Exam. Furthermore, you must perform a pre-trip inspection during your CDL skills tests. Failing to perform this inspection correctly leads to automatic failure.
A great place to start your learning journey is by practicing with our practice tests. They closely reflect the content and format of the theory exams you will take at the OMV office. This is our second Louisiana CDL Pre-Trip Inspection Practice Test, and you can train with it as often as you wish. Access it on any compatible device, directly in your browser. You don’t need to install any software to train with this tool, but you must be connected to the internet at all times.
Use our free CDL pre-trip inspection checklist to prepare for the hands-on exam.
