Free West Virginia CDL HazMat Endorsement Practice Test 2025

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

Earning a Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) endorsement on your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) allows you to legally transport materials classified as hazardous by the U.S. government, including explosives, specific fuels, industrial chemicals, radioactive materials, and biohazards, to name a few. It is a great way to open a world of new lucrative job opportunities that can level up your career and your wallet! The primary focus of this endorsement process is on maintaining the highest safety standards to protect you and the people and environment in your path.

There are state and federal requirements to be met before you can have this endorsement added to your CDL. First, you’ll need to pass a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) fingerprinting and background check. Then there is the DMV knowledge test which covers a host of necessary topics. West Virginia’s knowledge test is made up of 30 questions and must be passed with a score of at least 80% (24 out of 30 answers must be correct) (West Virginia CDL Handbook 2025). The minimum age for the Hazmat endorsement in West Virginia is 21.

According to the 2025 West Virginia CDL manual, the Hazmat endorsement not only opens up a wider range of cargo but can also lead to higher pay as employers often recognize the additional certification required! And face it! Without the Hazmat endorsement, you’re closed off from an entire cache of opportunities. In the Mountain State, there are multiple industries with cargo transport that require a Hazmat endorsement, including chemical manufacturing, petroleum and natural gas, and mining and coal processing. This sounds amazing and a little daunting, right? It doesn’t have to be complicated at all.

Our online West Virginia DMV Hazmat Endorsement practice tests are strategically designed to avoid as much of the irrelevant (and plentifully abundant) information you’ll come across. We go straight to the important stuff and mirror the official DMV test. The very first thing to do is apply for your fingerprints and background check. That process can take weeks. You definitely don’t want to do all the studying and taking practice tests only to find you’ve got to wait even more weeks for the TSA response. Study while you wait, get the results, and then head over to the DMV. There you’ll provide the necessary documents, pay the fees, and take the test, filled with confidence!

TSA wait is the perfect time to get re acquainted.
The TSA wait is the perfect time to get re acquainted with the ever changing Haz Mat regulations. At the state testing site, didn’t miss one question and passed once I hit my 24th question in a row correct. The knowledge you learn here is even perfect for someone who needs it for non-driving HazMat awareness jobs. Highly recommended and fast updating with state entities, your Edlt will be at the DMV before you ever arrive to test!

Your program was the key I needed.
The day before my test I signed up for your Hazmat and started taking the practice tests. Having the ability to see the right answer when I missed a question and see the explanation of how it is stated from the manual helped me tremendously. The morning of my DMV test I took your final test and felt ready. Upon arriving for my test at the DMV when my number was called I went to the window and the gal who seemed to have many years helping drivers said "Oh I hear the Hazmat test is a really tough one". A little bit of my confidence disappeared. I sat for my test at the touch screen and wWhen I finished my first 24 questions the computer kicked me out. I didn't realize that by not missing any of the first 24 questions I passed the 80% finish line.

The best study guide.
This was the helpful tool I used to get my hazmat and tanker endorsement they way it’s set you can’t fell test. Passed dmv test first try only missing 2 questions for hazmat and 0 for tanker

I knew every answer.
I took these practice tests for half of a day and aced my Hazmat test. This, coming after I failed it the pervious day. Almost every question was the exact same question at the DMV. I’ve recommended this site to all my co workers.

I was a little skeptical….
I was a little skeptical about how this was going to work out as I was not really clear about how to use the download and how to get the ELDT report to my state testing agency, not to mention that almost 160+ slides of the presentation never loaded. However, this turned out to be Exactly what I needed as I was able to take the course and proceed to get my HazMat and Tanker endorsements within about 24 hours after receiving my CDL-A.

Very useful materials.
Great practice for ELDT HazMat. I practiced for a couple days and had initially wanted to take my HazMat and Tanker test on the following Tuesday, but went sooner because I felt confident enough after practicing. Thank you driving-tests.org for everything so far.

I recommend 100%.
I did the entire program in a day. Do it at your own pace though. Well worth the grind. I passed my hazmat with only 1 wrong the next day. I recommend this program 100%.
LMB
Prepared and passed.
I used this site to get my HazMat Endorsement and passed the test on my first try. I liked that the site provided multiple ways to get the material-pdf download, audio or the full presentation. The test questions were great and applicable. I loved the challenge bank, which helped to identify the questions I was having trouble with. I went through the whole course over 2 days and felt really ready for the test.
