How To Get The Commercial Driver License Properly

By Walter Kennedy


Driving a huge truck is at a different level of difficulty when compared to operating a regular sized vehicle. There are many reasons why one would like to learn how to drive anything weighing 26,001 pounds and beyond. The qualifications are simple but there are still documents and exams to pass.

There are three classes of commercial driver certifications. The specifications on these classes can also vary from state to state. Commercial driver license NJ qualifications and requirements can be different from the one needed in New York. Driving a van that can seat eight to ten people requires a CDL in New Jersey while other states may not.

The basic requirement for a CDL applicant is at least 18 years old. This only applies if they plan to drive around the state. Interstate CDL requires someone to be at least 21 years old. The candidate must already have a class D drivers license . Also they should be able to recognize red, green and amber colors.

There are fees that come along with the getting a Commercial license for driving. It is important for candidates to know how much payment is needed throughout the whole process of licensure. Some applicants also count in a budget for training other opportunities to practice just to make sure they pass the road test. Endorsements may also require a fee. An endorsement can only be given once the person is already proven to be qualified through final testing.

The handbook provided by the agency is the study material for the written knowledge exam. This is the first test that the applicant will have to take in the string of tests that make up the certification process. A digital copy of the handbook is also provided for download typically in the state website.

Prepare all the necessary personal identification information the authorities might need. This is necessary to pass the six point ID verification process. When all the ID information is ready, the applicant can now go to the agency. Once there, fill out the required application forms and then submit them.

After the knowledge test has been successfully passed, then the candidate can now proceed to claiming his learner permit. The permit judicially allows the applicant to practice driving the vehicle he intends to be licensed for. Choosing a the vehicle the candidate plans to handle is vital in identifying and proceeding to class endorsement after he gets the CDL.

Restriction are attached to the learners permit. The permit is only for a limited time, 180 days for New Jersey. Permit holders are only allowed to practice on public roads while carrying the class D license. The CLP holder also needs to have a person with the full CDL with them. The candidate will have to wait 20 days before they can take the road test. It is best to consider taking a training course during this period.

The applicant can schedule the final road test once they are prepared to take it. Some states, like New Jersey, allow online scheduling for the test while other states others do not. Once the candidate has passed the road test they can now claim their official permit at the MVC agency.
