Hey People how are you.
So as you might already know DMV office of NY screwed me.
I had NY learner permit and went to Florida where I did road test on automatic transmission vehicle. So when I get back to NY to get my driver licence NY put restriction that I can only drive automatic. It made me mad and I went to find ways to avoid road test to remove this restrictions. You guys I remember were encouraging me to do new road test on manual transmission vehicle. thanks god I did not believe you truckers
So what I did is I moved to New Jersey address, changed NY licence into NJ licence and restriction disappeared. NJ DMV office told me that soon they might also introduce those rules but for now they don't recognize restriction on transmission as such, so I have new licence without any restrictions and no new road test is required.
ATTENTION: CDL changes

I don't see how you got screwed.
I see nothing wrong with restricting license when you tested in an Automatic.misterG, WildTiger1990, Thediamond13 and 3 others Thank this. -

NJ, Florida, PA do not have this option for NOW. -
For anyone in Indiana, as of today, many things were changed on the CDL exam. This includes the pretrip, backing maneuvers, and road test. I believe the changes can be found on the DMV website

Same here in Ga. -
What is funny is Florida school taught me driving on Manual transmission vehicle and on the exam for some reason they F*** brought automatic transmission vehicle. In FL it does not matter you pass exam on automatic or manual you still get the same licence without restriction. But NY is not like that. now NY distinguish road test exams.
God bless NJ, they are much faster in processing applications and will issue licence same day while you will have to wait for New york licence for two weeks to arrive in mail. -
They SHOULD know the rules for other states.
You should have had to retest in a Manual Transmission.
The whole point of the Test is to demonstrate that you know how to drive a certain type of vehicle.
