Free MA CDL Passenger Vehicles Practice Test 2024

If you are a Massachusetts resident considering the advantages of becoming a commercial Passenger Vehicle driver, this is a great time for staking your claim. These jobs offer great flexibility and earnings potential. Plus, you get a sense of independence that comes from traveling the open road and meeting interesting people along the way. Sounds fun? Let’s get started!

First, you will need to become a Massachusetts licensed Class A, B, or C CDL driver. More specifically, your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) needs to have a ‘P’ endorsement allowing you to operate a vehicle carrying 16 or more passengers, including the driver. The licensing process involves passing a written General Knowledge test and a road skills test. To obtain the ‘P’ endorsement, you must also pass a written Passenger Vehicles test and a road skills test demonstrating your ability to competently operate this type of vehicle (if you didn’t already do that for the CDL).

Naturally, you may wonder about the best way to prepare for these tests. Using our free Massachusetts CDL Passenger Endorsement practice test, based on the 2024 CDL Manual (Massachusetts CDL Handbook 2024), you will receive expert guidance in passing your written knowledge test in a minimal amount of time. Successful applicants need to answer 16 out of 20 (80%) questions correctly to receive a passing score.

Our practice test helps you focus on the concentrated areas of the official knowledge test: Driving Safely, Transporting Passengers Safely, Vehicle Inspection, and Basic Skills Control. The test is up to date as of November 2024. Better than preparing with a study guide, this approach helps you make a connection between the information and the question being asked. In the event you provide a wrong answer, don’t sweat it! You will get immediate guidance on your misunderstanding. Since there is no time limit on the practice test, you can learn at your own pace, increasing your chance of passing the actual test the first time.

Pro-Tip: If you are a Massachusetts resident wanting to embark on the exciting career of a CDL Passenger Vehicle driver, you will find more opportunities than seen from the Mayflower. On-line resources, handbooks, and our CDL Passenger guide are a few of the resources waiting for you.

In addition, our targeted endorsement practice test collection will provide you with insight into becoming a CDL Passenger Vehicle driver in other states and Washington D.C.
