📚 CDL Manual — Air Brakes
Questions are based on the official CDL manual (AAMVA model) used by state DMVs. The real CDL knowledge test is given in English — federal rules (FMCSA, 49 CFR 391.11) require English proficiency to drive commercially; our Chinese & Spanish are study aids. Some states also offer the written test in other languages (see the per-state table).
