All applicants who are applying for a Class A CDL should be prepared to take the Combination test. This test covers information found in Section 6 of the Arizona Commercial Driver License Manual. Section 6 provides the information needed to safely operate tractor-trailers, doubles, triples, and straight trucks with trailers. The test is made up of 20 multiple-choice questions, and applicants will need to correctly answer a minimum of 16 questions to pass. The Combination test is not a replacement for the Double/Triple endorsement test.

Number of Question 20

Passing Score 16

8. Rollovers happen when:

Drivers turn too quickly.

Drivers turn too slowly.

It is raining.

Rollovers occur when drivers turn or change lanes too quickly.

9. If you cannot reverse your trailer in a straight path, you should:

Swerve back and forth while backing.

Back toward the driver's side.

Back toward the passenger's side.

If you need to back your trailer but cannot back up in a straight path, you should back on a curved path toward the driver's side of the vehicle. This will allow you the best possible visibility while backing.

10. Fully-loaded rigs:

Are less likely to roll over than empty rigs.

Are more likely to roll over than empty rigs.

Are just as likely to roll over as empty rigs.

Fully-loaded rigs are more vulnerable to rolling over than empty rigs because the weight of the cargo gives the vehicles higher centers of gravity.

11. After completing a pre-trip inspection, you should ensure that the:

Service line valve is closed.

Trailer hand brake is applied.

Emergency line valve is open.

Before a trip, you should ensure that air reaches all air brakes on all trailers by opening up the rear emergency line and service line shut-off valves and listening for escaping air. Close both shut-off valves before beginning to drive.

12. Trailers built before ____ are not required to have spring brakes.

1985

1975

1999

Trailers built before 1975 are not required to have spring brakes. When parking a trailer without spring brakes, be sure to use wheel chocks to prevent the trailer from rolling.

13. When a vehicle goes around a corner, the rear wheels:

Follow the same path as the front wheels.

Follow a different path than the front wheels.

Should not be a concern to the driver.

When any vehicle goes around a corner, the rear wheels follow a different path than the front wheels. This is called off-tracking. The degree of off-tracking will be greater on long vehicles than on short vehicles.

14. In a vehicle equipped with an automatic tractor protection valve, the valve will pop out when air pressure drops to a level between:

20 and 45 psi.

75 and 105 psi.

50 and 65 psi.

In vehicles equipped with an automatic tractor protection valve, the valve will pop out if air pressure drops to a level between 20 and 45 psi. When the valve pops out, the protection valve will close, stopping the flow of air.
