Washington CDL General Knowledge Test 8 2025

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

This Washington General Knowledge practice test contains another 50 questions based on the official CDL manual. All questions have been updated for December 2025. These questions are designed to prepare you for the General Knowledge portion of your Washington Commercial Driver’s License exam. They are multiple-choice and offer three possible answers for each question. Only one of those three answers is correct, so choose carefully. If you’re not sure about the correct answer, you can use the hint provided for each question. As you work your way through these questions, you’ll begin to notice that the hint will point you to the correct answer without giving away the correct answer itself. This should allow you to make an informed decision about the correct answer, even if you don’t actually know it. Every time you answer a question, you’ll get immediate feedback with a detailed explanation, so you won’t need to wait until the end of the test to know the correct answers. Our CDL practice tests are not timed, so you can take as long as you need to answer each question. Good luck!

Started on Wednesday afternoon @ 4:12pm and aced all tests.
Aced my Class A CDL General Knowledge, Airbrakes, Combination, and Double &Triples tests @ 2:05pm on Thursday! I never even cracked the book, and I've never had a CDL before. The tests at the Washington State DOL were almost verbatim with the driving-tests.org ones!

Awesome product.
Awesome product and was just what I needed to pass all 3 CDL exams on the first time. Use it as directed and it works.

All I can say is..
WOW! I felt Very prepared for my CDL tests. I love the explanations given if you get a question wrong. I also Love the test bank of missed questions. I passed ALL 5 tests in 1 day! A couple of things that would greatly improve the program is 1. After the explanation, provide where it can be found, based on the states testing guide. 2. Having a broader base of questions. Some seemed to repeat themselves. 3. Providing a supplement for chapter 11 (pre inspection) as far as pictures for each of the 7 parts, with labels and testing that also has labeling.

All the questions on Driving-Test.Org are very useful..
From the time I decided to acquire my CDL Class A, it was the only source I consulted and studied. I tested for General Knowledge, Combination Vehicles, Air Brakes, and Doubles and Triples and passed all at one time. Secondly, it took me just 1 day to study and pass my HAMZAT. This website is really excellent and I recommend them to everyone Stanley

Give them a try! A decision you won't regret.
I had a great experience, straight forward and easy to understand content. I studied the course for Hazmat, Tankers, Doubles and Triples and while I aced both Hazmat and Tankers with a 100%, the questions I missed in my actual test for doubles and triples was because I didn't stop to analyze the questions before submitting my answers. Don't do like me and sleep on it, this is a decision you won't regret.
