NM CDL General Knowledge Exam Simulator 2025

Perfect for first-time and renewal CDL/CLP applicants, and those adding endorsements
Based on 2025 NM commercial driver's license manual
Triple-checked for accuracy
Updated for April 2025

The official New Mexico commercial driver license manual (New Mexico CDL Handbook 2025) is a useful resource for everyone who wants to get a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) in the Land of Enchantment. You should read its contents at least once to familiarize yourself with the various aspects of commercial driving theory, including emergency procedures, pre-trip inspections, traffic laws, and safe driving practices. In New Mexico, all CDL applicants must pass a 50-question general knowledge exam. While it is impossible to guess the exact questions you’ll receive at the MVD office, you can prepare in advance and train with our New Mexico CDL General Knowledge Exam Simulator.
This intuitive tool has been designed to closely reflect the content and format of the official CDL permit test, allowing students to simulate the official test experience. You must answer 50 multiple-choice questions and score at least 80% to pass. Please avoid rushing, as our simulator is not timed. Read every question twice and only select an answer when you’re confident in your choice. If you make too many mistakes, the test immediately ends.
The voice-over function is one of the two features available for our New Mexico CDL General Knowledge Exam Simulator. Once activated, an artificial choice will read the questions and answers aloud. Use this feature to eliminate distractions and increase your focus anytime you wish to practice in busy environments. Since you get unlimited attempts to practice as often as you want, we recommend developing a daily study routine centered around our simulator.
Do not get discouraged if you make too many mistakes. Although you won’t receive immediate feedback for your wrong choices, the questions you get wrong will be automatically added to your personal Challenge Bank. Visit this section after each session to strengthen your knowledge and learn from your mistakes. With repetition, you’ll memorize the correct answers while also understanding the reasoning behind them. Commercial driving is a complex subject, but you can easily master it with the right tools.

At Driving-Tests.org, we understand the importance of reliable and accurate practice tests to help you prepare for your DMV exam. That's why we've developed a meticulous process to create and continually update our practice questions, ensuring they reflect the most current driving laws and regulations.

Here's an inside look at how we maintain the highest quality in our practice tests.

Content Creation and Verification Process

Alignment with Official Manuals:
Every question we develop is based on the most recent version of each state's official driving manual. Our team regularly monitors each state DMV's website for the latest updates to ensure our practice tests are always aligned with the most current information.
Community Feedback Integration:
We leverage feedback from our vast community of users to understand which topics are most frequently tested. This helps us focus on the areas that are most relevant and beneficial for your preparation.
Expert Content Creation:
Our in-house editor, Steven, who has extensive experience in driver education, crafts each question with precision. He conducts a thorough review of each question against the official manuals to ensure accuracy.
Rigorous Review Process:
Once Steven has finalized a set of questions, our team conducts a joint review session. This second level of scrutiny involves content accuracy, proofreading, and fact-checking to eliminate any errors.
User Feedback Mechanism:
After a question goes live on our site, we keep the lines of communication open. Each question features a feedback button, inviting users to report any issues or errors. This continuous feedback loop allows us to address and rectify any concerns promptly.
Responsive Updates:
In line with our commitment to accuracy, we quickly update our practice questions to reflect any changes in the DMV manuals. Additionally, we update the free electronic copy of the state's driver's license manuals on our site, typically within a few days after the DMV publishes them.

Our thorough quality control process ensures that you have access to practice tests that are as accurate and up-to-date as possible. We believe in the power of well-prepared drivers and are dedicated to providing you with the best study tools to help you succeed on your DMV exam.
