About the Pennsylvania CDL test

PennDOT publishes 70 questions for the Class A commercial knowledge test and 50 for Class B and Class C. The passing figure shown applies the 80 percent federal standard, which PennDOT does not restate, and the minimum age is not published on the PennDOT commercial pages; both are listed as unconfirmed.
