Is there a CDL air brake endorsement?

RegSenseFleet SafetyTransportationBest ResultsFAQCDL endorsements and restrictionsFocus AreaEnglishCommercial drivers license CDLUSA

No, there is not a CDL endorsement for air brakes. Consider the following:

  1. If a driver takes and passes a road test in a vehicle that requires a Class A, B, or C license and the vehicle is not equipped with air brakes, there will be a restriction code on the driver's license prohibiting the driver from operating a Class A, B, or C vehicle with air brakes.
  2. If the driver cannot successfully complete the air brake portion of the CDL test (written and/or behind the wheel), a restriction is placed on the CDL.
  3. Many motor carriers and drivers mistakenly believe that a CDL is required to operate a non-CDL vehicle with airbrakes.

You should reference state licensing requirements to operate vehicles with air brakes, since states may adopt other, more restrictive requirements.
