For Those Who Have A Cdl (commercial Drivers License)?
So I will be getting my CDL (class B) (hopefully) this summer. And I am really worried about getting it. Can anyone who has one offer any suggestions on successful completion of the written and driven test? Any tips on driving a vehicle that is so different than a regular car?

Just learn the rules of the road.
And re the driving test, I wouldn’t recommend taking it until you have a lot of practice driving a bus or other large vehicle.
While you practice, here’s one good hint I got (I used to be a city bus driver): When making a right turn, go straight until the middle of the passenger door lines up with whatever object you need to clear (curb, car, etc.). Then crank hard to the right. The bus will clear the object beautifully.
Your mileage may vary, but it save me a lot of hassle.

There should be a handbook published by the state that will cover everything you need to know. And as far as the driving test, there is no substitute for practice.
