    yes, tanker and if one hauls home heating oil or propane or diesel fuel, or jet fuel, hazmat is required as well.

    As old as the thread is, the OP and anyone who replied may not be around. I had to go to DMV in Arleta today, so I asked an examiner. He said to go from a Class B to a Class A, you have to take the written, all written endorsements, even if you already have them, perform a complete pre-trip, which includes the in-cab air brake test, and a road test. Hope this helps.
