The guide will help you understand the rules of the road, including those specific to commercial vehicles.

5. **Training:** Consider enrolling in a driver training program or school that specializes in Class 1 commercial driving. This training can help you gain valuable experience and skills necessary for operating large commercial vehicles.

6. **Road Test:** Schedule a Class 1 road test through a registry agent office. During the road test, you’ll demonstrate your ability to operate a Class 1 vehicle safely. Make sure your vehicle is in good working condition and meets all safety requirements.
