CDL (Commercial Driver's License)

A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) is a special license required to operate large or heavy vehicles, such as semi-trucks, buses, and tankers. It ensures drivers have the necessary skills and knowledge to handle these vehicles safely on the road. Obtaining a CDL involves passing written exams, skills tests, and meeting health and background requirements. The license is regulated by government agencies to promote public safety and competent driving of commercial vehicles, which are often used for transporting goods or passengers over long distances.
