In order to get a Commercial Drivers License (CDL), you must first have a valid drivers license. Then you must pass the CDL test which includes the general knowledge exam and the driving test. You will also have to pass a medical exam and drug screening test. Once you pass all the tests you will have to pay for the actual CDL, which can cost between $25 to $100.
