Free IL CDL Passenger Vehicles Practice Test 2025

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

Have you ever considered the sense of freedom and job satisfaction that a career as a commercial Passenger Vehicle driver could bring? Illinois residents have a great opportunity to take advantage. With thirteen major interstate highways within its borders, Illinois is a national crossroads for vehicle traffic. That’s a lot of room to spread your wings! Tourists, conventioneers, students, senior citizens, and local residents are some of the people who depend on public and private transportation services for local travel. Are you ready to soar to new heights and gain a better outlook on your career?

First, you will need to add a ‘P’ endorsement to your Illinois Class A, B, or C Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). This endorsement allows you to operate a vehicle designed to carry 16 or more people, including the driver. Applicants must pass a written knowledge test and a road skills test to obtain this endorsement. The knowledge test concentrates on your comprehension of Driving Safely, Transporting Passengers Safely, Pre-Trip Vehicle Inspection, and Basic Vehicle Control Skills. This test requires you to answer 80% of the 20 questions correctly to receive a passing score. Now that you know your goal, what is the best way to prepare to reach it?

Compared with a study guide focused on your ability to memorize information by reading it, our free Illinois CDL Passenger Vehicle Endorsement practice test is a much better option to prepare for the official test. Based on the 2025 CDL Manual (Illinois CDL Handbook 2025) and up to date as of September 2025, the practice test uses questions just like the ones on the official test to evaluate your comprehension of the material. You can take your time and not worry about getting a question wrong. Immediate feedback is given on any wrong answers, providing a detailed explanation. This approach allows you to make a link between the correct answer and the question asked.

Pro Tip: Once you earn your commercial Passenger Vehicle endorsement, you can get your kicks on Route 66 and all of the other major highways running through Illinois. On-line resources, handbooks, and our CDL Passenger guide are available to keep you high-stepping down the highway.
