Sample Oklahoma Passenger Test Questions

Question 1

When switching from high beams to low beams at night, how should you adjust your driving?

  1. A Reduce speed by exactly 5 mph
  2. B Reduce speed as needed to stop within the distance you can see
  3. C Increase speed to leave the dark area sooner
  4. D Maintain speed regardless of visibility

Correct answer: B – Reduce speed as needed to stop within the distance you can see

Low beams illuminate less roadway than high beams. The Oklahoma CDL manual estimates about 250 feet of visibility with low beams, compared with approximately 350 to 500 feet with high beams. Drive slowly enough that your total stopping distance remains within the distance illuminated by your headlights; reduce speed whenever the shorter view requires it.

Question 2

At a railroad crossing, which action may improve a bus driver’s ability to detect an approaching train?

  1. A Move the bus closer than the required stopping point
  2. B Turn on the radio
  3. C Open the forward door if it improves the view or hearing
  4. D Shut off the engine before looking

Correct answer: C – Open the forward door if it improves the view or hearing

Stop the bus at the required location and look and listen in both directions for trains. Opening the forward door is appropriate when doing so improves your ability to see or hear an approaching train. Before proceeding, check that no train is approaching on any track and that the bus can cross without stopping.

Question 3

What vehicle dimension changes when emergency roof hatches are secured partly open?

  1. A The bus has greater overhead clearance requirements
  2. B The bus becomes legally wider
  3. C The wheelbase becomes longer
  4. D The rear overhang becomes shorter

Correct answer: A – The bus has greater overhead clearance requirements

A partly open emergency roof hatch increases the bus’s effective height. The driver must account for the resulting higher clearance when approaching bridges, canopies, tree limbs, or other overhead objects. The manual also advises against leaving roof hatches open as a regular practice, even when they can be secured partly open for ventilation.

Question 4

Which hazardous material is prohibited on a bus carrying passengers?

  1. A Small-arms ammunition carried as authorized
  2. B Division 2.3 poisonous gas
  3. C An authorized emergency shipment of hospital drugs
  4. D All of these materials

Correct answer: B – Division 2.3 poisonous gas

Federal hazardous-materials rules prohibit a motor carrier from transporting any Division 2.3 poisonous gas on a bus carrying passengers. Small-arms ammunition and emergency shipments of drugs, chemicals, and hospital supplies may be transported under the applicable conditions. The Oklahoma CDL manual likewise identifies poisonous gas as forbidden passenger-bus cargo.

  1. A 50 pounds
  2. B 99 pounds
  3. C 200 pounds
  4. D 496 pounds

Correct answer: B – 99 pounds

Federal regulation generally limits any one class of non-Class 1 hazardous material to 45 kilograms, or 99 pounds, on a passenger-carrying vehicle. The combined limit for those materials is 225 kilograms, or 496 pounds. The CDL manual presents these figures as approximately 100 pounds for one class and 500 pounds total; specified refrigerant and cylinder exceptions apply.

Interior checks help the driver notice riders who may need reminders about safety rules, including keeping their arms and heads inside the bus.
