South Dakota Driver Licensing locations do not administer driving skills tests for commercial driver licenses or endorsements.

You can take your CDL driving test at third party test sites around the state. CDL tests must be scheduled two business days in advance, and you must drive on a commercial learner’s permit for 14 days prior to testing. The cost of a driving skills test is $150 plus tax.

If you’d like to become a third party tester, view our Third Party Examiner Requirements. If qualified, email us or call (605) 773-6883 for further information between 9AM-4PM Central Time Monday-Friday, excluding holidays.
