Language Proficiency Requirement

Students must possess sufficient proficiency in English to communicate effectively, as language barriers can negatively impact a student’s performance. English proficiency is mandatory for the State Examination. In the event a student fails the State Examination due to a language barrier, or is unable to communicate effectively during the examination, RoadPro CDL Training reserves the right to terminate the student’s enrollment.

Pursuant to 49 C.F.R. 391.11(b)(2), the Department of Transportation and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration stipulate that a driver must be able to read and speak the English language sufficiently to converse with the general public, to understand highway traffic signs and signals in the English language, to respond to official inquiries, and to make entries on reports and records.

Under 49 C.F.R. 383.133(c)(5), interpreters are prohibited during the administration of the CDL skills test. You must be able to understand and respond to the examiner’s verbal commands and instructions in English, and neither you nor the examiner may communicate in any other language during the test.
