Anyone who wants to become a commercial driver in Washington State must first meet the requirements for a Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP). Applicants must be at least 18 to drive within the state and at least 21 to drive across state lines, transport passengers, or transport hazardous materials. To obtain a CLP, you must pass a vision screening, provide identification documents, and pay the necessary fees. Unless you will only be engaged in excepted commerce, you must also take a medical exam.
The official general knowledge exam includes 50 multiple-choice questions to evaluate your understanding of commercial driving theory. These questions are based on the Washington Commercial Driver Guide (Washington CDL Handbook 2025), an official resource published by the DOL. You must score 80% or higher to pass.

To obtain a Class A CDL, you must also pass the official combination vehicles knowledge test. This exam covers key topics such as coupling and uncoupling procedures, pre-trip inspections specific to combination vehicles, and safe driving practices. You must pass this exam to get your CLP and qualify for the CDL skills tests. Since most trucks in the Evergreen State are equipped with air brakes, you must also pass the official air brakes knowledge tests to drive them.
