New Hampshire CDL General Knowledge Test 9 2025

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

Updated for December 2025, this New Hampshire General Knowledge practice test contains another 50 questions based on the official CDL (Commercial Driver’s License) manual. You can use this test to prepare for the General Knowledge portion of the NH CDL exam. These questions are multiple-choice, with three possible answers for each question. Only one of those answers is correct. If you’re not sure about the correct answer, you can use the hint provided for each question. Each hint points you to the correct answer without giving away the correct answer itself. This should allow you to make an informed decision about the correct answer, even if you don’t actually know it. There is no time limit for completing this practice test. Every time you answer a question, you’ll get immediate feedback with a detailed explanation, so you won’t need to wait until the end of the test to know the correct answers.

I was turned away from the NH DMV because I needed ELDT training.
I was turned away from the NH DMV for a CDL C with Hazmat Endorsement because I needed ELDT training. I was super annoyed that I had to do this. Upon starting the courses, I learned it was a bunch more studying of the CDL Manual. I only studied what I thought was applicable to CDL C on my own. This prepared me way more than expected and thanks to driving-tests.org I learned a LOT and passed my CDL C and Hazmat Exams first try! I sent my brother a link and he signed up on this site as well. Anyone looking to be fully prepared to take a CDL exam or endorsement exams, I Highly recommend this site.

Easily passed the CDL Class A knowledge test.
I easily passed the CDL Class A knowledge test! The training material was incredibly helpful and the practice test questions were nearly identical to the actual exam. There is no reason to look anywhere else for training for your CDL knowledge tests!

The process was very easy to get started. It was step by step all the way through. I passed hazmat and tanker first try within just 2 days of using the software.

This program gave me all the tool….
This program gave me all the tool necessary to pass my hazmat and tankers endorsement tests. I was able to study and take the practice tests over and over right up to the morning of my tests and I passed on the very first try. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to obtain any kind of CMV license or endorsements. Thanks again to Driving-Tests
Q
Thanks!
Most of the questions here are on the actual test, however the real exam has trickier questions in which multiple answers shown would be correct. Instead of being able to select all of the above they are looking for 1 specific answer. This should be reflected for realism on some of the questions and tests presented here. Also I encountered a question about turns with turn lane 1 and 2 presented at an intersection, or turning from a 4 lane Hwy to a 2 lane divided hywy. I passed all of the tests i.e. general knowlege at 40 out of 50 (due to trickier questions), air brakes 100% and combination vehicles 100%. The air brakes exam and the combination vehicles exam was just as presented in the testing practice package. Passing the tests and obtaining my cdl learners permit in a short amount of time should show the true power of this method of learning.

Really great explanation!
Great service! I bought 7 days for ELDT CDL A theory, just for learning and certification of ELDT. There is a video course with good pictures and voice in same time. And you can download the PDF for own it. After theory you must have finished testing marathon about 700 questions with 100% right. This marathon organized so cool. You don't need remember any wrong answers because they are saving for answering again later. After marathon you mast do exam. I did with 92% right. Awesome. But I did mistake about my schedule for study and I had to pay again for 7 days to save my progress and finish studying. You have to be accurate with it and will plan your study smarter than me. There is about 12 hrs of video and after that marathon with 700 questions. It may be necessary 5-7 full days of study. Or you can pay in advance for 30 days study. It's cost no to much. After exams they automatically send you certificate and data to TPR (DMV also) and you can check immediately. Thanks for a great service! I will recommend you!
