Knowledge test

To upgrade a driver’s licence, you will need to pass a knowledge test for the class of licence for which you are applying.

You can take your knowledge test at most Alberta Registry Agent offices.

The test is comprised of questions based on the entirety of the Commercial Driver’s Guide regardless of chapter title, as well as the Driver’s Guide (Cars and Light Trucks).

Most of the Class 1 and Class 2 knowledge test questions have been taken from the MELT curriculums.

You will be asked about safe driving practices, driving laws, and road signs.

Since Class 1 drivers may operate other types of vehicles, applicants for a Class 1 licence may be asked questions from the other chapters in this guide.

The test is 30 multiple choice questions and you must score a minimum of 25 correct responses out of 30 to pass. When six questions are answered incorrectly, the test will be stopped and a fail will be recorded.
