The Free CDL Passenger Endorsement Practice Tests developed by CDL Digest each contain 20 multiple choice questions to help you pass the actual CDL Passenger Endorsement Test on the first attempt. You must have a score of 80% (16 out of 20 questions) or better to pass. A Passenger Endorsement is required to operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) that is designed to transport sixteen (16) or more people, including the driver. This endorsement can be added to a commercial learner’s permit (CLP) or commercial driver’s license (CDL).

Pre-Trip and Post-Trip Vehicle Inspections

Loading and Unloading Procedures

Driving a Commercial Passenger Vehicle

Prohibited Practices

The source material used by CDL Digest to develop these practice test questions is very technical. It may be necessary for you to take the Practice Tests several times to make sure you have a thorough understanding of all the material before taking the actual CDL Passenger Endorsement Test at your State Driver Licensing Agency.
