Class A CDL – Your Path to a Professional Trucking Career

Earn Your Class A CDL and Unlock High-Paying Trucking Opportunities

A Class A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) is your gateway to driving heavy-duty combination vehicles, such as tractor-trailers, tanker trucks, and double/triple trailers. Whether you’re pursuing a career in long-haul trucking, freight transport, or specialized logistics, obtaining your Class A CDL provides the flexibility to drive some of the largest and most in-demand commercial vehicles on the road.

At Automedon CDL Testing, we specialize in providing comprehensive Class A CDL testing to ensure you’re fully prepared to operate these vehicles safely and legally.

What is a Class A CDL?

A Class A CDL allows you to operate combination vehicles with a Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR) of 26,001 pounds or more, where the towed vehicle exceeds 10,000 pounds.

🚛 Common Vehicles You Can Drive with a Class A CDL:

  • Tractor-Trailers (18-Wheelers, Semi-Trucks)
  • Tanker Trucks (with proper endorsement)
  • Livestock Transporters
  • Double and Triple Trailers (requires additional endorsement)
  • Flatbed Trucks
  • Certain Class B Vehicles (Straight Trucks, Dump Trucks, Buses)

A Class A CDL provides maximum versatility and allows drivers to operate most large commercial vehicles, often leading to higher-paying jobs in the trucking industry.
