I had to take class C as well as class M for motorcycle as well. They also said if you fail any of the three you have to take all of them over again to pass. Yikes! LOL

I passed all three the first time out but I was sweating the motorcycle section for some reason. LOL

So I have to take my CDL permit test this Thursday here in California. So I hear i have to take the CLASS C, then since I have an M1 I also have to take the M1 exam, then the CDL-A.

MY question: Will they charge me extra for the Class C and M1 exams? Or will it all be just one fee?

CDL:

Commercial Driver's License (CDL)

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:

  • Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
  • Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.

Wind. I had to take everything again so I could add hazmat. I took all tests, class A, C, & M1 including endorsements, for $39.00 in April 2017. Price might have changed since then. Good luck.

HAZMAT:

Hazardous Materials

Explosive, flammable, poisonous or otherwise potentially dangerous cargo. Large amounts of especially hazardous cargo are required to be placarded under HAZMAT regulations
