If you are a Connecticut resident who has ever considered becoming a bus driver or the driver of a 15-passenger van, this may be the time to make your move. Connecticut recently invested $4.5 million to address the need for these positions to serve targeted industries, such as public transportation and health care. How can you secure one of these jobs? First, you will need to become a licensed Class A, B, or C Connecticut CDL driver.

A ‘P’ endorsement is required on a Connecticut CDL for drivers to operate a vehicle that can transport more than 15 people, including the driver. Applicants are required to pass both a written and a road skills test in a passenger-carrying vehicle to obtain this endorsement on their CDL. The written test includes four sections covering: Driving Safely, Transporting Passengers Safely, Vehicle Inspection, and Basic Vehicle Control Skills. Successful applicants need to answer 16 of the (question-num) questions correctly to receive a passing score.

Using this Connecticut CDL Passenger Vehicle Endorsement practice test based on the 2024 CDL Manual (Connecticut CDL Handbook 2025), you will be equipped with a resource that is better than a study guide. This practice test has been expertly designed to prepare you with successful test-taking abilities. It is presented in a multiple-choice format and contains questions just like those on the actual test. The practice test is up to date as of January 2025. Since it allows you to learn at your own pace, the process is stress-free. Additionally, you receive immediate feedback on your answer to each question. Wrong answers are highlighted with detailed explanations.
Pro Tip: There are multiple resources available to you while taking the practice test. You will find on-line resources, handbooks, and our CDL Passenger guide. Although it is not allowed to be used during the written exam, you can use it to look for correct answers and make a link between the information and the question asked.

Additionally, you may refer to our targeted endorsement practice test collection, which includes multiple tests for all 50 U.S. states and Washington D.C.
