When it comes to commercial driving, there are plenty of career paths to choose from. If you plan to drive combination vehicles, you’re stepping into a demanding but rewarding field. Ohio is home to carriers that move freight across the state and beyond. Many of these companies operate out of major logistics hubs such as Columbus, Cincinnati, and Toledo, where interstate and rail lines intersect. They look for reliable drivers who hold a Class A CDL (Commercial Driver’s License) and understand the safe operation of combination vehicles.

Nobody is born an excellent driver. Your driving skills can only be improved with practice, so you don’t need natural talent to pull a loaded trailer across the state. However, perseverance and consistency will carry you a long way into your commercial driving career. To support your learning journey, we have created a series of Ohio CDL Combination Vehicles Practice Tests.

The practice test that you’re about to take includes questions based on Section 6 (Combination Vehicles) of the official Commercial Driver License Manual (Ohio CDL Handbook 2025). We recommend reading this section multiple times. Updated for December 2025, this practice test includes the latest updates brought by BMV rules or state law. You will always practice with the latest version.
