Study the CDL manual and take practice tests to prepare for written knowledge tests that cover topics such as vehicle inspection, basic control skills, and on-road driving.

Once you pass the required tests, you can apply for a CDL from your state's DMV. Depending on your career goals, you may need additional endorsements (e.g., HazMat, Tanker, Passenger) on your CDL. Be sure to meet the specific requirements for each one.
