After raising the landing gear all the way up, you should:
Answer: A. Secure the crank handle and check for enough clearance between the tractor and the landing gear and trailerRaise the landing gear all the way up and secure the crank handle. Never drive with the landing gear only part way up; it can catch on railroad tracks. With the trailer's full weight on the tractor, check that the rear of the tractor frame will clear the landing gear in a sharp turn and that the top of the tractor tires clears the nose of the trailer.

Where should you uncouple a trailer?
Answer: C. On ground that can support the weight of the trailer, with the tractor lined up straight with the trailerSoft ground can let the landing gear sink or collapse and drop the trailer. Pulling out at an angle can damage the landing gear, so have the tractor lined up with the trailer before you uncouple.

To ease the pressure on the fifth-wheel locking jaws before you unlock them, you should:
Answer: D. Shut off the trailer air supply, back the tractor up gently against the kingpin, then set the parking brakesPulling out the red knob locks the trailer brakes. Backing gently against the locked trailer takes the load off the jaws so the release handle moves easily.

When uncoupling, you should chock the trailer wheels if:
Answer: A. The trailer has no spring brakes, or you are not sure whether it doesWithout spring brakes, the trailer's brakes can leak off once the tractor is gone. Chocks keep the trailer from rolling, and they cost nothing compared with a runaway trailer.

When pulling the tractor out from under the trailer, why should you stop with the tractor frame still under the trailer?
Answer: C. So the trailer will not fall to the ground if the landing gear collapses or sinksPull partially clear, then stop and inspect the landing gear and the ground under it. Only when you are sure the trailer is supported should you pull the tractor all the way out.

How the Wyoming CDL knowledge test works
You take the general knowledge test first; it is required for every CDL class. Class A drivers add the combination vehicles test. Almost everyone takes the air brakes test, because skipping it puts an air brake restriction on the licence. Endorsements (hazmat, tanker, doubles/triples, passenger, school bus) each have their own knowledge test. Pass the tests and you hold a commercial learner's permit; the skills test in a truck comes later.
Fees, appointment rules and test centre locations are set by Wyoming; the current ones from Wyoming WYDOT are in the next section. What does not change is the content, and that is what PassRig drills.
