SGI publishes a separate Professional Driver's Handbook (Classes 1 to 4) and an Air Brake Manual; its examinations page says the knowledge exams draw on these plus the general Driver's Handbook. Until 2026-10-17 this slot held the general handbook under the belief that no commercial manual existed.

Read the handbook, 2 parts

Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI) publishes 2 separate files and no combined document. Each one opens on the agency website, so you always get the current version.

Rather not read every page?

Sunny breaks the Saskatchewan handbook into short lessons in plain language, plays them aloud if you like, and checks what you remember before moving on.

Why the Saskatchewan handbook is worth reading once

Every question on the SGI knowledge test comes from what Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI) publishes in this handbook. Our 342 practice questions for Saskatchewan are written from it too, so reading it once and then testing yourself is faster than doing either alone.

You do not have to read all 2 parts at once. Take the rules of the road and the signs first, then come back for licensing and registration.

What the Saskatchewan handbook covers

These 252 pages are the whole of what the test can draw on. Reading the list below is a quick way to find the parts you have not looked at yet.

  • Commercial licence classes and the endorsements on top of them
  • Medical requirements and how often you are reassessed
  • Air brakes: the system, the checks and the warnings
  • Pre-trip and en-route inspections
  • Hours of service and logbooks
  • Cargo securement, weights and dimensions
  • Off-tracking, turning and reversing a long vehicle
  • Downgrades, brake fade and mountain driving
  • Transporting dangerous goods
  • Impaired driving rules that are stricter for commercial drivers
  • Sharing the road from a cab, and the blind spots a car cannot see

Saskatchewan test facts

Every figure here is Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI)'s own for the SGI knowledge test, not a national average. Provinces genuinely differ, and studying another province's number is a common way to fail.
