Free SC CDL Passenger Vehicles Practice Test 2024

With 41,500 miles of highways, South Carolina paves the way for potential commercial Passenger Vehicle drivers to reach higher earnings and great job satisfaction. Talk about a substantial workspace! If you have never thought about working as a commercial Passenger Vehicle driver, you should be paying attention to all the green lights on your route. These job opportunities are not limited to a specific geographical area or industry. Public and private transportation providers need drivers to serve their clients and expand their service areas. Don’t get left behind! The secret to avoiding the potholes and successfully navigating the curves on your way to your new career is right here.

Using our free South Carolina CDL Passenger Vehicle Endorsement practice test based on the 2024 CDL Manual (South Carolina CDL Handbook 2024), you have a starting point on the road to a new, exciting career. This test is an excellent resource to guide you through the process of adding a ‘P’ endorsement to your Class A, B, or C CDL license. This endorsement permits you to operate a vehicle that carries 16 or more passengers, including the driver.

Getting the endorsement is a two-step process. You will need to pass a Passenger knowledge test and a road skill test. The Passenger knowledge test concentrates on the CDL Manual sections pertaining to Driving Safely, Transporting Passengers Safely, Vehicle Inspection, and Basic Vehicle Control Skills. You must answer 80% of the 20 questions on the written knowledge test to receive a passing score. The advantage of using the practice test to prepare is that it is an interactive method, exceeding the effectiveness of using a study guide. The practice test is designed to thoroughly explain any wrong answers that you submit. You will receive expert instruction improving your chances of getting it correct the next time.
