To obtain a Class 1 driver’s license, drivers must demonstrate their driving skills and knowledge of traffic laws and regulations. Some rules that professional drivers must follow in Quebec include adhering to load capacity limits, maintaining safe driving speeds at all times, and adhering to posted speed limits. In addition, professional drivers must always stay alert and focused behind the wheel, avoid distracted driving, and observe proper lane changes and turns. Violations of these traffic rules can result in demerit points added to a driver’s license, fines, and even licence suspension. Professional drivers in Quebec must always prioritize safety and responsible driving practices to ensure that they do not cause harm to themselves, their passengers, or other road users.

To begin your career in professional driving, you must obtain your Saskatchewan Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 Professional Driver Licence.
These online practice tests were developed to help individuals study for their professional driver’s license. Our practice testing area is designed to help you learn the information on your actual written knowledge test and familiarize you with the testing format. All testing material is covered in the official Saskatchewan Professional Driver’s Handbook.

Potential drivers should be aware that specific circumstances, such as your driving record or a medical condition, may prevent you from securing employment in the transportation industry even if you meet all requirements.
