Free GA CDL School Bus Practice Test 2024

This CDL practice test is a great place to start if you’re after the GA School Bus endorsement. Each of the 20 questions is based on the official 2024 CDL manual. The test is designed to prepare you for the School Bus portion of your 2024 Commercial Driver’s License exam. There are several answer options, but only one of them is correct. Every time you answer a question, you’ll get immediate feedback with a detailed explanation, so you won’t need to wait until the end of the test to know the correct answers.

The CDL School Bus endorsement is required of anyone who wants to drive a school bus. It is an important role. You’ll be responsible for the safety of multiple children, so you must prove that you understand safety practices, vehicle operation and student transportation rules. In Georgia, the law mandates that all drivers must stop for school buses that are boarding or deboarding children. While you operate a school bus, it is important to also pay attention to the surrounding traffic since some drivers might overlook this rule.

The test consists of 20 multiple-choice questions and you must score at least 80% (16 correct answers) to pass. The questions are based on the official 2024 CDL manual and cover topics such as vehicle inspection, proper mirror usage, danger zones around the bus and Georgia-specific traffic laws concerning school buses.

As you practice on this test, keep in mind that there are several answer options for each question but only one of them is correct. Every time you answer a question, you will receive immediate feedback with a detailed explanation, so you won’t need to wait until the end of the test to know the correct answers. This gives you the opportunity to identify the areas where you are struggling, allowing you to focus your learning efforts towards improving your knowledge.

This endorsement is a key qualification as it demonstrates to future employers that the driver has all the necessary skills and knowledge to operate a school bus. Keep in mind that some of these vehicles use air brakes, and you’ll also need to pass an air brake test before you can operate class A or class B school buses equipped with air brakes.

Since our Georgia CDL school bus practice test has been triple-checked for accuracy, it is ideal for both first-time applicants and all those who want to add endorsements to their driver’s licenses. Additionally, you can use our CDL school bus practice tests and review all necessary procedures and safety measures in our complete School Bus endorsement guide.
