Rhode Island CDL Class A Practice Test 2025

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

Aspiring commercial drivers interested in a Class A CDL must pass several knowledge tests before getting a Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP). The official general knowledge exam consists of 50 multiple-choice questions on the various aspects of commercial driving theory. You can find more information on this subject in the official Rhode Island Commercial Driver License Manual (Rhode Island CDL Handbook 2025).

Because a Class A CDL allows you to drive combination vehicles, you must pass the official combination vehicles knowledge test as part of the licensing process. The L restriction on your CDL would forbid you from driving trucks equipped with air brakes. Scoring 80% or higher on the official air brakes knowledge test removes this restriction and gives you more employment opportunities.

Our Rhode Island CDL Class A Practice Test has been designed to help you become a better commercial driver. This intuitive tool is up to date as of August 2025 and consists of 93 multiple-choice questions. For your convenience, we have omitted any timer from this practice test. Please avoid rushing and complete each session at your own pace.

“Officer Frank,” our automated assistant, can provide insight, hints, and detailed explanations at your request. If you have difficulty understanding a complex question, this AI coach can rephrase it upon request. Initiate a conversation with “Officer Frank” and get the help you need to master the material. The test settings menu includes several features. You can access this menu by clicking the three dots in the top-right corner of the page.
