Are you familiar with traffic laws, emergency procedures, pre-trip inspections, and safety regulations? Your knowledge of the various aspects of driving theory will be tested during the official CDL General Knowledge (permit) test, which consists of 50 multiple-choice questions based on the official Vermont commercial driver’s manual (Vermont CDL Handbook 2025). Mastering this subject takes time and effort, but you can significantly boost your learning potential by adopting a smarter approach. Commercial driving is a skill that cannot be learned overnight. If you start today, you may be ready to take the official exam after a few weeks. During this time, please avoid rushing and ensure you understand what it takes to become a safe and responsible commercial driver.
Our Vermont CDL General Knowledge Exam Simulator has been recently updated for November 2025. When you train with this tool, you’ll be using the latest version available. All 50 questions have multiple answer choices, but only one is correct. Please read every question twice and think before you select an answer. We have designed this tool to closely reflect the official testing experience, so you won’t receive any hints. If you make too many mistakes, the test will immediately end. However, you can learn from your mistakes by visiting your personal Challenge Bank™, which includes detailed explanations and useful insight. Students who struggle with test anxiety can take as long as they need to finish an active session. We have omitted any timer from our simulator to eliminate the pressure of a countdown.
You can enable the voice-over function to increase your focus. Once activated, an artificial voice will read the questions and answer choices aloud. This feature is particularly useful whenever you want to run a quick session in a busy environment where you’re more likely to be distracted. To simulate the official testing experience as accurately as possible, you should avoid using any other resources while training with our simulator. You will not have access to any external help at the DMV office, so you must rely on your own knowledge and preparation.
