Commercial Driver License (CDL)

The Commercial Driver License (CDL) program started in 1986 to keep our highways safe. It makes sure only qualified drivers can get and keep a CDL.

MVD issues CDLs and conducts knowledge tests at any MVD office and road/skills tests at any CDL office. We also work with the Medical Review Program to make sure commercial drivers meet the physical requirements.
