DMV messed up my license

How would you like to be yanked around in the rear wagon by one of these speeding bus drivers out here

 

as long as she keeps it under 50 mph and it don't explode..??

ok, i guess......lol

 

articulated buses are still considered Class B buses. Class A buses have a separate power unit towing a passenger trailer.

 

I was about to ask what the heck is a class A bus. Thanks for the lesson.

 

please refer to the o/p's first posting.

then, someone asked what was an articulated bus.

 

Yes sir, I did read his original post and saw where others asked what articulated buses were.

When I read your reply, you mentioned the op was not allowed to drive articulated buses...

As I had mentioned, a Class B (or Class A w/M restriction) CDL holder can, indeed, legally drive articulated buses. Class A buses are an entirely different vehicle vs the articulated buses.

Just trying to help clear the mud we sometimes find in discussions.

 

this is not even in America, but most likely in India....



i have never seen those types here in the states.

airports have buses for shuttling passengers across the airport, which look similar to what i had posted, but in fact, are not as tall. city buses that are articulated are taller.

it'll take me some time, when i get back, i will search again for what i had found.

 

Class A buses used to be very common years and years ago, then got relegated to only being common in Texas and California. Today, they're a very rare thing to see in any part of the country outside of maybe military use occasionally.

I'm looking forward to seeing the info you had found to see how it differs from the information I had gathered. Thanks for taking the time to share that when you do find it.
