CDL Study Guide — Class A Core Scaffold

National Class A knowledge hub stub. Cover ELDT (49 CFR 380 Subpart F), pass line 80% (49 CFR 383.135), and FMCSA + state CDL manual intent. Do not stub 50 state pages or endorsement Wave 2 here.

Planned chapters

Vehicle inspection & controls, safe driving, air brake systems, coupling/uncoupling, combination handling, cargo basics (GK scope), and how state manuals map to 49 CFR 383/392/393.

Out of scope this wave

HazMat, Tanker, Passenger, School Bus, Doubles/Triples endorsements and per-state landing pages — schedule for Wave 2 after Class A core ranks.
