Free Michigan (MI) CDL Hazardous Materials practice test 2026

H endorsement: placarding, shipping papers and the segregation table.

What’s different in Michigan

Most Hazardous Materials questions are the same federal material in every state. 3 questions in the app are written for Michigan alone, from the Michigan Commercial Driver's License Manual (2005 CDL Testing System, Rev. 03/24).

  • Michigan rule: Section 1: ELDT must be completed before you can take a hazardous materials endorsement knowledge test; for other classes and endorsements you must complete ELDT before scheduling a skills test.Michigan manual, section 1

Two Michigan questions, answer shown

You fail Michigan's hazmat endorsement test at renewal. When may you retake it the same day?

  1. Only with the branch manager's approval(correct answer)
  2. Any time, as often as the branch is open that day
  3. Never; a seven-day wait applies before any retake
  4. Only after paying a $50 retest fee at the counter

You may keep using the existing endorsement until the licence expires. A same-day retake needs the branch manager's approval; otherwise you may renew without hazmat and add it later for an $18 correction fee plus $5.
