There are THREE parts to the Maryland CDL Skills Test
You must obtain a
Maryland CLP (commercial learners permit) prior to taking your Maryland CDL skills test.
Maryland Basic Control Skills Tests
- Straight line backing
- Offset right or left backing
- Alley dock backing
The backing control skills information for each representative "type"
vehicle is found in Section 12 of the
Free
Maryland CDL Handbook (Commercial Driver's License Manual).
The three-part Maryland CDL skills tests must be scheduled (often more than a week ahead).
They are given either by a Maryland state tester or by a Maryland state approved third party
tester. Depending on where you live, you will either have to provide a proper
vehicle or one will be provided for you. This may vary from location to location.

"Just what I needed. Prepared me for my Class B CDL. It was fast and efficient. I passed my CDL written tests on my first try. Helped me get a handle on the skills tests so that it went much easier.

"My friend told me how hard the tests were . . . he finally passed on his third try. He couldn't believe how well I did in such a short time with your CDL Course. He wishes that he used your product.
