North Dakota CDL Class A Practice Test 2025

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

Are you considering a career change? If the idea of hauling heavy cargo across the Peace Garden State intrigues you, commercial driving might be the perfect choice for you. However, this job involves great responsibility, and the DOT is quite strict about the licensing process. Only the most determined students can get a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). To succeed in this field, you must have the discipline to keep going even when it gets tough.

Although commercial driving theory is not rocket science, students unfamiliar with this subject often have difficulty understanding its more complex aspects. The official North Dakota Commercial Driver License Manual (North Dakota CDL Handbook 2025) describes pre-trip inspections and safe driving practices and provides details about each endorsement. Read this manual multiple times and revisit it often during your learning phase. This resource plays a major role in your preparation, so it shouldn’t be missing from your toolkit.

You can use our North Dakota CDL Class A Practice Test to evaluate your knowledge before exam day. This intuitive tool is up to date as of December 2025, so you will always practice with the latest version. For the latest information, you should check the official ND DOT website.

The answer popularity feature lets you see how other users answered each question. After you make your choice, the system automatically shows the percentage of users who picked each answer. Use this feature to identify questions where misconceptions are common, and pay attention to the detailed explanation provided. This and many other features are available in the test settings menu.

“Officer Frank,” our automated assistant, will be present during each practice session. At your request, this AI coach will provide hints, real-life examples, and useful insight. It can also answer your individual questions, helping you learn commercial driving theory in a way that suits your learning style. You get nonstop access to this practice test, no matter where you are. Practice whenever it fits your schedule and finish each session at your own pace. Dedicate the next few weeks to studying commercial driving theory and improve your knowledge one question at a time.

With the driving program and tests, I was able to pass my DMV exam.
I only got like one or two wrong. Every question that was on the test was actually on the DMV test too.

I was wanting to obtain my cdl license….
I was wanting to obtain my cdl license and i decided to read the info that the dps office tells you to download and study. It was so confusing and so much information that i was overwhelmed. My buddy told me he tried it but failed. Then he told me about Driving-Test.org. He said listen "it cost a few bucks but i promise you you'll pass". I said ok! I bought it for maybe a 100 bucks, read it and studied for 2 days straight. I went and took 2 test and aced them. I was like holy s@$!t this is the truth. Then i went the next day and aced the other 2. I didnt second guess at all. Everything thats on Driving-Test.Org is on the test. I would have never guessed it was as good as it is bc i actually ran across it before but didnt purchase it. The free one is ok but you wanna get the one you have to pay for and its like a 100 bucks n change maybe 120 but its worth it. You dont have to believe me bc i have my permit already😜 Best investment of my life.

To everyone who has failed the cdl….
To everyone who has failed the cdl general knowledge test. I too failed the test twice! Even after using the free tests this site offers. Although it was helpful I still failed. After purchasing, I studied for a few hours, went in the next day and passed with confidence! I would highly recommend paying for the use of this site. It will save you time, intern save you money! Please learn from my mistakes. Hope this helps.

Passed with flying numbers!
I went and tried to take my first 2 test for the class A CDL, witch was special requirements and General knowledge I only read the handbook, I ended up failing the General knowledge. I downloaded the program studied for probably 5-6 days and aced the rest of my tests in one sitting only missing 5 out of 95! Highly recommended!

Best online practice tests.
I found this website while searching through tons of sites to help practice for the CDL permit. I tried my permit test 3 times and failed, I knew i had to try something different. When i came across this site I studied one full day and felt confident enough to go take the exam the following day and I passed!

Best money spent ever!
Took a class and read the manual to prepare for the written CDL-A test and didn't feel ready. Driving Tests prepared me so well that I besides the General Knowledge, Combination, and Air Brakes tests I also took the Haz-Mat, Double-Triples, and Tanker tests all on the same day. The test moderators were surprised on how quickly I finshed all 6 tests. I highly recommend Driving Tests to help you get your CDL.
