Ohio CLP and skills-test reminders

An Ohio CLP is valid for 12 months, and a CLP holder must be accompanied by a CDL holder properly endorsed for the vehicle. Ohio's skills test includes a pre-trip inspection, basic maneuverability and a road test. Applicable ELDT must be documented before scheduling or taking the skills test.
