Free Vermont CDL HazMat Practice Test 2024

Vermont is a small, unique state revered for everything from its pristine skiing landscapes to its maple syrup exports. Today, you will have an opportunity to take a practice exam for your Hazardous Materials (HazMat) endorsement exam. Vermont’s commercial vehicle drivers are essential for the state’s products to reach consumers all over the U.S. and the rest of the world. The HazMat endorsement ensures that you can carry an even wider range of Vermont products on the nation’s roadways safely. The questions on this practice exam have been created by our expert writers based on the information and knowledge-testing sections directly from the Vermont CDL Manual, as well as relevant state and national laws. Feel free to revisit and retake the exam as often as necessary until you achieve a score that will help you pass the real exam on the first try (80% or better is recommended). We also recommend reading each question’s hint and explanation carefully, as they may help you answer future questions correctly on exam day. Good luck both now and in the future, and drive safely in Vermont and around the nation!

  • Perfect for first-time and renewal CDL/CLP applicants, and those adding endorsements
