It is February 2026, and the most determined students no longer rely on traditional study methods to prepare for their CDL theory exams. 37 users are currently training with our practice tests, improving their knowledge through active learning. This approach helps them better understand general commercial driving theory, which is thoroughly described in the official Commercial Driver’s License Manual (New Jersey CDL Handbook 2026). This resource should not be missing from your toolkit, and we recommend using it while you train with our practice tests.

All commercial drivers must perform a pre-trip inspection at the start of their shift. This safety check ensures safe working conditions, prevents accidents, and protects your cargo, passengers, and other road users. This procedure involves checking the brakes, steering mechanism, tires, turn signals, and seatbelts, among other things. It is required by law, as both federal and state regulations require commercial drivers to conduct a pre-trip inspection before they get behind the wheel.
