CDL FAQs

How is this different from the Consumer Fast Lane plan?
This plan is tailored to CDL drivers: it monitors CDL-specific appointment types and lets you watch the exact DMV offices you choose. You can add a second recipient (spouse, trainer, or dispatcher) and cancel as soon as you’ve booked what you need. The Consumer plan is aimed at standard license needs.
Can I choose specific DMV locations to monitor?
Yes. Select the exact offices you want to track at sign-up and update them anytime.
Which CDL appointment types are included?
Knowledge/Computer Tests (including the School Bus/S endorsement), CLP issuance, and CDL issuance.
How fast will I get an alert?
It depends on demand at your chosen locations. Most drivers see their first alert within 24–48 hours.
Can alerts go to someone else too?
Yes. Add a second recipient so a spouse, trainer, or dispatcher also receives the SMS alerts.
Can my employer or school district pay for this?
Yes. Departments can contact Support for invoice/bulk purchasing when buying on behalf of employees or trainees.
Do you book the appointment for me?
No. We alert you instantly with a booking link. You complete the booking on the official NCDMV site.
Is this a monthly subscription? Can I cancel anytime?
