Pennsylvania waives commercial driver’s licence testing based on your military driving experience. If you worked in the past year as Army 88M or 14T, Air Force 2T1, 2F0 or 3E2, Marine Corps 3531 or Navy EO, both the skills test and the knowledge test are waived. If you have military commercial driving training and experience without one of those specialties, the skills test alone is waived as long as you have been licensed for at least two years on a military vehicle similar to the commercial class you want.
Submit the commercial learner’s permit application, the self-certification form, the military CDL skills test waiver application and the required fee at any Pennsylvania Driver License Center, or by mail to the Bureau of Driver Licensing, P.O. Box 68272, Harrisburg PA 17106-8272. For questions call 717-412-5300.
