FREE Ontario Class D/DZ Licence Test

The Ontario DZ written test is split into two parts: the Class D license knowledge test, and the Z endorsement test for air brakes. The knowledge test for Class D contains 40 multiple-choice questions about large trucks, and combination vehicles along with trucking regulations. There are two sections: 20 questions focused on road rules specific to heavy trucks and commercial vehicles, and 20 questions on associated road signs and trucking signals. The Z endorsement test, which is separate, tests knowledge of air brakes, how they operate, and how to inspect them. Thus, to acquire a DZ license, both the D license test and Z endorsement test must be passed. If you don't pass either test, you can retake the failed one after repaying the associated fees. Looking for a free Ontario DZ practice test? Take this test below for the D license part, and this free Air Brake practice test for your Z endorsement.

Perfect for first-time and renewal commercial applicants, and those adding endorsements

At Tests.ca, we understand the importance of reliable and accurate practice tests to help you prepare for your driver's knowledge exam. That's why we've developed a meticulous process to create and continually update our practice questions, ensuring they reflect the most current driving laws and regulations.

Here's an inside look at how we maintain the highest quality in our practice tests.

Content Creation and Verification Process

Alignment with Official Driving Handbooks:
Every question we develop is based on the most recent version of each province's official driving manual. Our team regularly monitors each province's official website for the latest updates to ensure our practice tests are always aligned with the most current information.
Community Feedback Integration:
We leverage feedback from our vast community of users to understand which topics are most frequently tested. This helps us focus on the areas that are most relevant and beneficial for your preparation.
Expert Content Creation:
Our in-house editor, Steven, who has extensive experience in driver education, crafts each question with precision. He conducts a thorough review of each question against the official manuals to ensure accuracy.
Rigorous Review Process:
Once Steven has finalized a set of questions, our team conducts a joint review session. This second level of scrutiny involves content accuracy, proofreading, and fact-checking to eliminate any errors.
User Feedback Mechanism:
After a question goes live on our site, we keep the lines of communication open. Each question features a feedback button, inviting users to report any issues or errors. This continuous feedback loop allows us to address and rectify any concerns promptly.
Responsive Updates:
In line with our commitment to accuracy, we quickly update our practice questions to reflect any changes in the provincial government manuals. Additionally, we update the free electronic copy of the state's driver's license manuals on our site, typically within a few days after the government publishes them.

Our thorough quality control process ensures that you have access to practice tests that are as accurate and up-to-date as possible. We believe in the power of well-prepared drivers and are dedicated to providing you with the best study tools to help you succeed on your driver's knowledge exam.
