Preparing for South Dakota CDL Tests - Taking South Dakota CDL Tests . . .
Our products help to
prepare you to be able to pass the required
South Dakota CDL Tests. The
actual South DakotaCDL written tests must be taken in-person and with proper identification, at the
South Dakota state office under the authority and audit of South Dakotagovernment personnel. Our CDL training program is totally online and does not
include any training in an actual vehicle. After receiving your South Dakota CLP (commercial license permit), you will likely
need to get some behind-the-wheel experience to be able to pass the three-part
South Dakota CDL skills tests. You may choose to get this experience
through a friend, relative, employer or truck driving school. The actual South DakotaCDL three-part skills tests will be given by either a South Dakotastate examiner or by a atate approved independant examiner. Depending upon the
location; the CDL test vehicle will be provided by the examiner, or will be the
responsibility of the applicant (a qualified CDL holder must be in the vehicle
until your CDL is issued).
