Class C with Passenger CDL for Nevada CDL Applicants

A Class C with Passenger endorsement in Nevada covers vans and small buses designed for 16 or more people. Two knowledge tests at Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles, General Knowledge and Passenger, plus a skills test in a Class C vehicle.

Where Nevada drivers use this

  • Smaller school buses and activity buses for Nevada school districts (P and S endorsements)
  • Gaming and resort supply chain: motorcoaches, hotel shuttles, and airport buses
  • Transit agencies, charter companies, and church or community buses across Nevada
  • Gaming and resort supply chain: hotel, airport, and resort shuttle vans (P endorsement)
  • Mining and aggregates: crew and shift-change buses (P endorsement) and light HazMat runs to the sites

Most Nevada CDL work runs the I-80, I-15, I-11 corridors and the Carson City area, so the examples in the practice questions lean on the vehicles and loads you will see there.

Testing, appointments, and fees are handled by Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles. See the Nevada CDL classes and Nevada endorsements pages for the full licensing picture.
