In addition to over 1,000 test questions, CDL Study Buddy also provides every CDL handbook throughout the United States in pdf, as well the the CDL handbook in audio so you can listen to it on the go!! And instructional videos that help guide you through every step of the pretrip inspection, air brake inspection, and even a DOT roadside inspection.
One of the most common questions I receive is "Does your test cover the material for my state?". And the answer is yes it does, this is because every state in the United States uses the cdl handbook that is produced by American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA), and thus the reason you'll see something to the effects of "copyright, AAMVA" in your CDL handbook. So study with confidence and use my free app that has already helped over 60,000 people study for and pass their written test.
