Test-Day Checklist

  1. Read the question once for the topic, then read it again for the exact CDL action being tested in General Knowledge.
  2. Eliminate answers that sound convenient but skip an inspection, warning sign, or safety step.
  3. Say the correct rule out loud before moving on so you can recognize it when the exam changes the wording.
