ME CDL General Knowledge Exam Simulator 2025

  • Perfect for first-time and renewal CDL/CLP applicants, and those adding endorsements
  • Based on 2025 ME commercial driver's license manual
  • Triple-checked for accuracy
  • Updated for July 2025

Did you know that in Maine, all aspiring commercial drivers must complete Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) before obtaining a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL)? This is a federal requirement mandated by FMCSA to reduce crashes, make roads safer, and set a national standard. You must get your ELDT training from a provider listed in FMCSA’s Training Provider Registry (TPR). Commercial driving is a complex skill that cannot be learned overnight. On average, it takes a student a few days to learn the basic aspects and several more weeks to master this subject.

The Maine Bureau of Motor Vehicles (DMV) publishes the official commercial driver license manual (Maine CDL Handbook 2025). This resource is the basis of the official CDL General Knowledge (permit) test, which you must pass to get a Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP). All 50 questions have multiple answer choices, but only one is correct. Your knowledge will be evaluated at a DMV office, where you must score 80% or higher before the timer ends. Instead of leaving it to luck, it’s better to prepare in advance. Our Maine CDL General Knowledge Exam Simulator gives you an idea of what to expect on exam day. We have created this intuitive tool to closely mirror the content and format of the official exam, except for a timer, which we have omitted for your convenience.

Students with auditory memory can benefit from the voice-over function. Once activated, an artificial voice will read the questions and answer choices aloud. This feature is also helpful in busy environments, as it helps you increase your focus and minimize distractions. Whether you have a few minutes or a few hours, you can practice at your own pace. With unlimited attempts and nonstop access, you have the flexibility to customize your learning experience to your needs. Consistent progress will get you a long way. Within a few weeks of practice with our simulator, you’ll be ready to ace the official exam on your first attempt.
