For those who will be reporting to Livingston Street in the immediate future, click here for the pre-employment packet (if you need it). The CPD-B booklet is not necessary since this is not a civil service position.

For those of you who are still waiting, you folks might want to check out this and this YouTube video. In addition, if you need help getting your Class B CLP (Commercial Learner's Permit), I would encourage you to check out cristcdl.com, which is free! Remember, the multiple-choice tests you need to take and pass, at minimum, are General Knowledge, Air Brakes and Passenger Endorsement.

If you need to make an appointment at the DMV to take the multiple-choice examinations for your Commercial Learner's Permit, click here.

Good luck!

As far as no restrictions at all: That's going to be hard. The second page of this PDF document lists all of the endorsements and restrictions for New York State residents. Therefore, if you wear glasses, you will have a "B" restriction. If you take your road test in an automatic transmission bus, either through the MTA or on your own, you will receive an "E" restriction. Even for me, I successfully took a road test in both a manual transmission tractor-trailer and a manual transmission bus and I have an "M" restriction in which I can not drive a Class 'A' Passenger Vehicle on the 'legitimate' street. The reason why I say 'legitimate' street is because if you look at this and this image, I'm sure the operators of those trams have a regular license since they're only used within a parking lot and not on the 'legitimate' street, especially with passengers on-board.

Now if you look at the top of the second page of the Notice of Examination, the key words are "no disqualifying restrictions." Therefore, if you have an "A3" or a "B" or a "E" or a "K" or a "M" restriction, you're fine. Now if you decide to take the road test on your own and you get a "L" or a "N1" or a "N2" restriction, then there's a problem since that falls under "disqualifying restrictions."

Got it? If not, please do not hesitate to ask. We're here to help.

Thank you so much, so they wouldn't disqualify me when I go to the pre-employment interview?

As long as it is not a disqualifying restriction, such as "L" or "N1" or "N2" you should be fine.

In addition, I would encourage you to review the restrictions in the second chart on this DMV webpage. As you can tell, if you are going into training with a permit, you will initially receive a "P" restriction, however, this will be removed once you pass the CDL road test.

 What’s expected to pass your cdl and part of your first 10 days training. Great review 👍🏼

Yes and no. During the initial 10-day training session, you will not be required to inspect the engine - that is reserved for those who have a permit and will be taking the road test once you pass the 10-day training session.

In addition, if I recall correctly, depending on your Superintendent/Instructor, you will be required to perform the pre-trip on Days 4 and 7. If you are unsuccessful on Day 7, your second qualifying day will be Day 9, which includes no highway driving, no pre-trip, no parallel parking, no backing up, etc. Unless they changed it, click here for the Day 9 route.

In addition, for those of you in the upcoming classes, don't forget about the handouts and this DOB New Hire FAQ.

Good luck!!
