Sure. Have you failed a written test or the background checks?
Yes, unfortunately.
In that case the DMV will issue a CDL that does not have a HazMat endorsement.
What do I have to do to pass the test? Can I repeat it?
You must answer 80 % or more of the questions correctly to pass the test. You can take the test as many times as necessary until you pass the test.
Are you aware of the updates to CDL skills testing? Is there any new information about the CDL test?
Yes, there are, as well as testing day requirements.
Can my employer help me with this process?
Yes, they should, as no employer requiring a CDL for their employees should let someone work without one.
Do you also require NY state residency?
Yes, all licenses issued by the State of New York require you to have residency.
What about if I'm a US Resident but not a NY State resident?
That can work but it will have to be after June 2015 for an issuance date.
What if I had a CDL in another state and am trying to get it transferred to NY?
It's possible; you would have to speak with a branch representative in order to get more details, however.
What if I was self-certified?
