This report describes the development and evaluation of the Truck Operator Qualifications Examination (TORQUE) consisting of the following tests: Truck Operator Road Test (TORT), Skill Test (TOST), Manual (TOM), Knowledge Examination (TOKE), Pretest (TOP), and Defects Examination (TODE). The TOM and TOST evidenced sufficiently high reliability to permit their use as driver license tests. The reliability of the TORT was marginal. However, it was no lower than that of a conventional State road test and results on the TORT correlated significantly with results on the TOST, while scores on the conventional State road test did not. The measurement techniques employed in the TORT are recommended to improve the objectivity, reliability, and validity of road tests for heavy vehicle operators.
