Free UT CDL School Bus Practice Test 2024

With a population exceeding 3 million people, Utah is one of the fastest-growing states in the United States. It has one of the highest graduation rates in the country, thanks to devoted students who rarely consider skipping classes, even when the weather is threatening their journey to school. In Utah, heavy snowfall is common during the winter months. Snow severely impacts driving conditions for commercial and school bus drivers, but school districts ensure each vehicle is in good working order and their drivers are qualified for the job.

Aspiring school bus drivers must follow several steps and obtain specific endorsements on their Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). In Utah, both the School Buses (S) and Passenger Vehicles (P) endorsements are mandatory if you want to follow this career path. They can both be obtained after passing their respective knowledge tests, a separate general knowledge test for your CDL and a skills test which takes place with you behind the wheel of a school bus.

Those who want to become school drivers can study the official 2024 CDL manual (Utah CDL Handbook 2024). It covers information on the various aspects of commercial driving, including its various endorsements. While this manual helps you get an idea about what it’s like to drive school buses, most learners consider its content difficult to study.

To maximize your chances of success, we recommend searching for online resources that could significantly boost your learning journey. Our Utah CDL School Bus practice tests are updated for December 2024, and they can help familiarize you with the official knowledge exam. Each consisting of 20 questions, these practice tests have proved their effectiveness with many learners who have become licensed school bus drivers in Utah.

Although they closely reflect the official written exam, our practice tests do not feature a timer. There’s no countdown to pressure you into making quick choices, so you can take as long as you need before submitting an answer. For your ease of use, we have also introduced several keyboard shortcuts, which you can access by pressing the “SHIFT + ?” keys.
