These rules include obeying speed limits, wearing seatbelts, and following proper signaling procedures. Professional drivers must also have a valid Commercial Driver’s Licence (CDL) and adhere to specific requirements, such as regular vehicle inspections and mandatory rest periods. Additionally, the province has implemented a Zero Tolerance policy for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Professional drivers who violate these regulations risk losing their licence and facing severe consequences. Thus, all professional drivers in Quebec must understand and follow the province’s traffic rules to prevent accidents and ensure safety on the roads.

To begin your career in professional driving, you must obtain your Saskatchewan Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 Professional Driver Licence.
These online practice tests were developed to help individuals study for their professional driver’s license. Our practice testing area is designed to help you learn the information on your actual written knowledge test and familiarize you with the testing format. All testing material is covered in the official Saskatchewan Professional Driver’s Handbook.

Potential drivers should be aware that specific circumstances, such as your driving record or a medical condition, may prevent you from securing employment in the transportation industry even if you meet all requirements.
