Class A question. please help me

Unless you took the skills test for "A", you're not qualified to drive that class. I would go back to the DMV and have them verify everything. Driving a vehicle you're not qualifed to drive is an "OOS" offense and a fat fine.

 

I concur. It might come back to bite you in the wallet!

 

You're comparing apples to apples here. The skills test are the same. The actual equipment utilized and weight limitations are the area of difference.

From his state:

I know this sounds odd. But you can get a Class A by showing up for your test in a single axle dump, pulling a short trailer laden with a big bulldozer.

The weight will kick you into class A, without a hitch. And it WILL be a valid Class A CDL.

You're testing for a weight/combination class of CDL. The only reason for the combination...is the weight.

A Fire Truck driver can get a Class A, with restrictions. But only needs a Class B, if the truck he operates doesn't exceed the weight limits.

And there is no way in #### you're going to get a Fire Truck driver on a skills test, pulling a 53 ft trailer.

 

well if you have class a it means you can also drive class b, so i wouldn't worry over it since your friend the cop ran them. so your set then

 

When you took your class B skills test (backing and road driving) did you have a trailer or just the straight truck? If you had a trailer you may have qualified for a class A. If you did not have a trailer you got the wrong license.

Also, maybe you have a B license and an A permit?

 

Firefighters operating commercial equipment owned or operated by or for a government agency are exempt from holding a cdl. If these individuals chose to operate one outside of the agency,they are subject to the same rules as you and I.
