2024 IL Tanker Information
The tanker endorsement provides the ability to operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) that is transporting bulk liquids. The tanker endorsement is required for portable tanks, attached tanks, drivers carrying filled cylinders, or intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) filled with liquid even if they are transported in a dry van.
The tanker endorsement exam is comprised of 20 multiple choice questions covering outage, being top heavy, and other special skills needed for hauling liquid freight. You will need to score at least 80% (16 out of 20) to pass the tanker exam.
We have compiled 60 questions that you will need to know before heading to the DVM to take your tanker endorsement test. These questions are based off the 2024 Illinois CDL drivers’ manual, and will provide the information you need to know to put yourself in the drivers’ seat.
