Opinion: I feel that not only should the truck drivers take the test
but also anyone that drives a car. Until I took a course and found out the
rules that truckers have to go by, I was one of those drivers that rode on
the trailers rear bumber impatiently waiting to get around. I have much more
respect for the BIG trucks now.
Auto drivers: Take the test if you can.
*****************************************************************************
Programs that should be with the Air Brakes Test are as follows:
'BTEST.EXE' - The Main Program
'BREADME.DOC' - This File
'REGISTER.DOC' - Comments / Donations Form
'BNEWVER.DOC' - Lists changes made to this version
I would appreciate it if everyone would keep all files intact,
as they are, in unmodifyed form. If there are any comments, use the
form provided with the program package, 'REGISTER.DOC'. Thanks!

With the government making the CDL manditory I felt that there
may be the need for a helper program in the preperation for taking the
CDL written tests. So far the only helpers I have written is for the
'General Knowledge' - 'AirBrakes Test'- 'Hazardous Materials' and
'Combination Vehicles' ...
Just in case you wondered, yes, I do have my CDL with all
Endorsements with one exception 'Passenger Bus'.
I hope to make it a bit easier on others than it was for
me. (It was VERY costly). Especially when you consider that
both my wife and I were schooled to pass the CDL.
These programs will in no way be all you need for preperation, but are
designed to help in the progress of the knowledge required. Some of the
questions may be on your test and some may not. You will need to refer to
your states CDL preperation testing booklet to get the rest of the
knowledge you need to pass the written tests.
There are Seven possible tests. Three are manditory for the CDL for
Semi-trucks and two are required for straight truck CDL, the rest
are Endorsements:
'General Knowledge'
'AirBrakes'
'Combination Vehicles'
'Doubles & Triples'
'Tanker Vehicles'
'Hazardous Materials'
'Passanger Bus'
There is also one other test you should know, the DOT test. This consists
of 66 questions. If I notice that there is a real need for the programs
stated here, I will continue to write the others. Including the DOT test.
