Doubles and Triples for North Dakota CDL Applicants
North Dakota's energy boom has dramatically increased HazMat and tanker CDL demand across the Bakken region. With oil and gas field services, grain and agriculture, coal and energy driving much of the freight in North Dakota, the Doubles and Triples material below is the part of the North Dakota CDL that those employers screen for first.
Doubles and Triples is knowledge-test only in North Dakota, so once you pass at North Dakota Department of Transportation the T endorsement is added without another road test. Check which combinations are legal on North Dakota highways before you assume triples are an option.

Topics Covered for North Dakota Doubles and Triples
Converter dollies connect multiple trailers in double and triple combinations and must be coupled correctly including pintle hooks and safety chains. An improperly connected dolly is a primary cause of trailer separation.
Doubles and triples require multiple coupling points, each with its own procedure and inspection checklist. A missed connection at any point can result in a runaway trailer at highway speed.
Multiple-trailer combinations are more prone to rearward amplification and rollover than standard tractor-trailers, especially on curves. The exam tests why these forces occur and how to manage vehicle stability.
Inspecting a double or triple combination requires covering more connection points and a longer inspection sequence than a standard rig. You will learn the full inspection order for multi-trailer combinations.
The added length and weight of double and triple combinations increases stopping distance significantly beyond a standard combination vehicle. Exam questions cover safe following distances at various speeds and road conditions.
