Kansas CDL Permit Practice Test — 119 DMV Questions
119 DMV-style practice questions for the Kansas DOR permit test. $15. Pairs with CDL-A Theory ELDT ($20) for first-time Class A applicants.
What It Costs and Where to Start in Kansas
Every FMCSA-approved ELDT theory course is $20, online, and finished in under 2 hours. Completion is filed to the federal Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.
- Hazmat — $20 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- CDL A — $20 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- CDL B — $20 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- Passenger — $20 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- School Bus — $20 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- 3-Endorsement Bundle — $50 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- All Bundles — from $30 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- Hazmat + Test Prep — $30 FMCSA-approved ELDT
- CDL-A Permit Prep — $15 DMV study aid — not ELDT
Not sure which one?
- I already have a CDL and want to add an endorsement — you only need the endorsement course: Hazmat, Passenger, or School Bus, $20 each. Skip CDL-A and CDL-B entirely.
- I'm brand new and have no CDL — start with CDL-A or CDL-B theory, then complete behind-the-wheel training locally. Theory alone does not get you licensed.
- I want all three endorsements — the 3-endorsement bundle is $50 instead of $60 separately.
- What's the cheapest way to do everything? — bundles are the floor: $50 for H+P+S, or $30 for either CDL theory course paired with permit prep. Adding Hazmat all-in, including the federal TSA background check and your state's endorsement fee, typically runs $110–$150.
- Tanker (N) or Doubles/Triples (T)? — neither has an ELDT requirement. The federal rule covers Class A, Class B, the B-to-A upgrade, and Hazmat, Passenger and School Bus only. Both are knowledge-test only at your state DMV: Tanker Test Prep — $15, or Hazmat & Tanker Complete — $45 if you need the Hazmat ELDT too.
Kansas CDL Permit Test — What You Need to Know
Before you can take any CDL skills test in Kansas, you need a Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP). To get the CLP, you pass the DMV knowledge test at Kansas Department of Revenue — Division of Vehicles (Kansas DOR) — that's the permit test. It's separate from FMCSA-approved ELDT training. ELDT is required to take the CDL skills test; the permit test is required to get the learner's permit that lets you take the skills test.
DLA Academy's CDL-A Permit Prep is a $15 study tool with 119 practice questions covering the topics the Kansas DOR permit test draws from. It is not FMCSA-approved ELDT and does not fulfill the ELDT mandate — but it pairs naturally with CDL-A Theory ELDT ($20) for drivers who want both the permit prep and the federally-required theory training.
What's Inside the 119 Practice Questions
The CDL-A Permit Prep covers every topic the DMV knowledge test draws from. Roughly:
- ~50 General Knowledge questions (rules of the road, signs, defensive driving)
- ~25 Air Brakes questions (system components, low air pressure, parking brakes)
- ~25 Combination Vehicles questions (coupling, uncoupling, trailer handling)
- Sample Hazardous Materials questions (for drivers also studying the H endorsement)
- Questions formatted to mimic the state DMV knowledge test interface
- Self-paced — review missed questions, retake as many times as you want
Most drivers run through the full bank twice before the state test. Combined with the official CDL handbook for your state, the pass rate is high.
Taking the Permit Test at Kansas Department of Revenue — Division of Vehicles
In Kansas, the permit test is administered by Kansas Department of Revenue — Division of Vehicles (Kansas DOR). Bring proof of identity, proof of state residency, your Social Security number, and (if applicable) your DOT medical card. Test format is multiple-choice and you'll typically need to pass General Knowledge plus any endorsement-specific sections you're adding (Hazmat, Air Brakes, Combination Vehicles, Passenger, School Bus). You can find the official Kansas DOR CDL manual and scheduling info at https://www.ksrevenue.gov/dovcdl.html.
You must hold a valid CLP for at least 14 days before taking the CDL skills test in any state.
Kansas CDLs are issued by Kansas Department of Revenue — Division of Vehicles (Kansas DOR).
What CDL-A Permit Prep Is and Isn't
Permit Prep ($15) is a DMV knowledge-test study tool. It is not FMCSA-approved and does not fulfill the ELDT mandate. It helps you pass the state permit test to get your CLP.
CDL-A Theory ELDT ($20) is the FMCSA-approved entry-level driver training required before you can take the CDL skills test. It auto-submits to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours and is accepted by Kansas DOR.
For first-time Class A applicants you'll likely need both — Permit Prep to pass the permit test, then CDL-A Theory ELDT to qualify for the skills test, then behind-the-wheel training (BTW) at a local FMCSA-registered provider.
