CDL - TRAINING CONSULTANTS
(Specialized Training)
Get a free CDL Manual from any BMV or Ohio Exam Station. For a Class "A" CDL you will need to read sections: 1, 2, 3, 5 & 6. This consists of 50 questions for General Knowledge, 25 questions for Air Brakes and 20 questions for Combination.
You may need to call to make an appointment to take the State Written test at any Ohio License Exam Station. (Many phone numbers are listed on this site)You must tell them what Class of CDL (A, B, C) you are applying for and any endorsements. Air Brakes are not an endorsement! If you are taking the test with an Air Brake truck then you have to take the Air Brake written test!
Ohio Drivers License Exam Station will administer an eye test. You must pass the General Knowledge first to continue testing with The other endorsements. If you should fail any test you are allowed to re-take that test, in most cases 24 hours later.
Once you have passed your tests with 80% or better (4 tries per test) it will be entered into their computer which will allow you to then purchase your temporary license at the BMV. Your temporary license is valid for a 6 month period. The driver can drive the vehicle he qualified for but only if a current and valid Commercial Licensed Driver is in the same vehicle with the proper classifications.
CDL-Training Consultants will make all arrangements for you to take the Skills Test at a State operated or 3rd Party testing facility. The test consists of three parts: Pre-Trip Inspection ($20.00), Off-Road Backing Skills ($20.00) and the Road Test ($45.00). The entire test takes approximately 2 hours.
After you have passed the Skills Test you can then go to any BMV within 10 days to transfer your current Operators License to a Commercial Drivers License. Your expiration date on your CDL will concur with your present operators license unless you are within 60 days of expiration.
