Heres a head scratcher about my cdl

Not if the pick up has the gvwr rating and the trailer is a fifth wheel type, AB rescriction is only if he can,t use AB nothing there means hes good, i seen a farmer do this before, a fifth wheel gives him full class A in california at least, tag suck.

 

I must say sorry i never could spell restricted correctly, if it does not require chains between the tow vechile and towed vessel in Ca, its considered full Class A, anything else in non comm class A as i understand it at least, thats the Ca way.

 

In Indiana he would get a semi restriction.

 

But he says he doesn,t so to me hes ok, i guess if dot decides he can,t he will know soon enough, but he said no restrictions show up on his lic or at dmv, i never actully figured out what he was trying to find out, he seems to know hes ok already.

 

ny he would be A restricted and it would say no A/B not sure about laws out that way

 

In TX airbrakes are written test first for permit, then on driving test must show instructor your knowledge by doing leak down test. If you show up for drive without a/b then one part of test can't be done, sounds like lazy examiner.

 

If he took the written A/B test, and passed it, his has A/B. Therefore, no restriction.

The pre-trip is an entirely separate test.

 

Its been a day sence i took my test, but youre right, at dmv one does do the in cab air test, cola backwards i beleave its called, but if his ex boss was cerified to test him then he is not complying to regs, so only the op knows for sure if hes legal.
