Free Rhode Island CDL HazMat Practice Test 2024

Today, you will have an opportunity to take a practice test that is closely based on the real exam you must pass to receive your Hazardous Materials (HazMat) endorsement in Rhode Island. As Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the United States, it makes sense that its most successful commercial vehicle drivers will be those with the most certifications since this gives them the most flexibility. Each question has a hint if you should need it, and an explanation, which we recommend reading carefully as they have been jam-packed with information from the RI DMV Commercial Driver License Manual designed to help you answer future questions correctly on your real HazMat exam. You can also keep taking this practice exam until you feel confident in your passing score, which we recommend should be 80% or higher to prepare for the real HazMat exam. Good luck today with your practice test and with your new HazMat endorsement shortly!

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