Making sure you have the right license is one of the most important items to check as you start to live your new #RVLifestyle. You will need to really do all your own research to determine the laws for your State. This video was simply a way to describe our situation and we are no expert in this field.

A friend of mine who RV’s part time mentioned it to me that you need a CDL. Like you I asked numerous people and all were of the opinion that no you don’t. I went to my local licensing office and they said no you don’t as well. I do have a CDL because that’s what I do for a living. Thankyou for delving into this important topic! It’s sad to think even Government agencies aren’t aware. 😔

@scottishpride7511 Год назад

...an added note here. My wife and I currently reside in Texas. We are in the process of buying a 45' Prevost RV. Without a toad, it will require a class B non cdl license. With a Toad and or trailer, it will require a class A non-cdl license. Each of these has a weight limit of 26001 pds. Now to the problem. How to get one? The easiest thing to do, is check out your local truck driving schools. For $800 +/- You can go to a class and set, learn, for a class A, class B, or class C...CDL. Keep in mind this tiers upward. As such, a class A (bottom of the tier), will allow you to (because it is over and above both non-class a & b), and it will allow you to drive legally in any state that requires a non cdl license. As long as you are legal in your home state. Our Prevost will weight in at around 60k. As such it only makes sense for me to go this route. I set and learn, they set up the test (written and road), i pass, i get the license. Most importantly, I am legal in the eyes of any insurance firm, because i have met my state's legal requirement to drive said vehicle. Lastly. If, you can afford an expensive rv, you can spend a few days in class and learn just how to handle it legally. ScottishxPride, Tx.

Todd you have come a long way from when you started this journey. Great research, great info, great service to this community! Stay safe!

@greghall9006 Год назад

Great video Todd. This video needs to be out here! I have a CDL W/medical certificate (truck driver for 45 years, retired now) and I’ve tried to explain this to friends and other campers about needing a non commercial class A license to legally tow their 40+ foot 5th wheels. They all give me that deer in the headlights look! I have a Ram 3500 and pull a Cyclone 3950 (41 feet long) toyhauler and I’m covered with my license for my State of California. Again Todd, you da man for going the extra miles to find out this information and to get it out on your RU-vid channel. I am sharing this video with all my fellow RV’ers that need to see this video. You definitely Switched It Up this time you’re an asset to the community. Bravo Zulu! ♥️

@SwitchItUpLife Год назад

Thank you! I really asked in the beginning and couldn’t seem to get a straight answer- but I just feel better now that we really know what we need to have and it’s done.

@miketomas8564 Год назад

Greg- As a CDL operator of a Class-B work truck (Air Brake, Medical, HOS, ect), 26,000lbs (Wait for it!) Actual 28,000lbs and REGISTERED as 30,000 Thus I was required to get a CDL. Now I own my own 40 foot Class A at 36,000 lbs which is not only heavier than anything I've driven, it's the longest vehicle I've driven. Like you, I've taken the tests and actually whole heartedly believe that a higher "class" of license for heavier vehicles are issued with Studying and Tests is actually important for all of us. For example; I know somebody that's been driving a Diesel Pusher for almost three years, and just NOW is asking what Air over Hydraulic is! That Tells me a lot of things. He doesn't understand Air Brakes- how they operate, do Safety Checks or even know where the Hydraulic fluid reservoir is. He doesn't even know what's going to happen when he looses Air pressure!. So, this education, testing and certification is quite important for the owner to have been made aware of ahead of time. But My focus here Greg is how some States are inclusive of Recreational Vehicles into the Licensing of Commercial Vehicles. To Me; this is GD Stoopid as a Recreational Vehicle is NOT a Commercial Vehicle. An RV does not meet the federal definition of a Commercial Truck. It's like these states have laws, that they don't even understand the definition of their own laws. This is the most aggravating part of all this and is likely the cause of all the arguments you and I have had with other people about Needing "CDL's" for RVs. All because of a few stOoPiD states that treat Weight as the defining criterium of Commercialism.. I could go on.. But I digress. (Shakes my head like my instructor did)...

@greghall9006 Год назад

@@miketomas8564 I wholeheartedly agree with you. I’ve never understood why I’m required to have a special license in my State (California) to legally pull my 41 foot 5th Wheel trailer, yet some old geezer, half blind, and can barley walk can drive a Class A diesel pusher with air brakes right off the RV lot not knowing anything about the air brake system or anything about operating a large vehicle. Yes folks, these people are out there trying to drive an RV they know nothing about. All States should require every RV owner that drives or tows above a certain weight or length to complete a safety course. I had to prove I could drive that big rig, and I had to prove I could ride and handle a motorcycle. So why in the hell don’t ALL these States require these big RV rig drivers to take a course? OK, like you Mike, I’m stepping down off my soap box now! Have a good day Mike. ♥️

@LeapofFaith-RV Год назад

6:32pm mst Great video! On a side note: Most Truck dealerships and RV dealerships don’t know anything about GVWR, payload, towing capacities and hitch weight as it relates to the truck you are towing with. As recent…brand new RV and truck shoppers, we had the hardest time dealing with salesmen (truck and RV) that didn’t understand what we needed to tow safely. We thought the dealerships would know all this, but we were absolutely wrong! We had to educate ourselves and after hours and hours of research on our own- to be quite honest-we educated some of the dealerships! Do your own research-as always! Know before you tow is for real! We learned so much! Stay safe!

@nighthawk8764 5 месяцев назад

You are sooo right. Most dealerships are much more interested in making a sale than they are in the customers safety.

@neilcherylscott6380 Год назад

As a holder of a Class A CDL, even tho I have retired, I keep it. The difference between the class A license and Class A CDL, as I see it, with a Class A CDL you also have to go thru a medical exam at least every 2 years or less if you are meds for any health issues. The Class A CDL training also covers air brakes. In my opinion it’s a good training for anyone towing no matter what.

@wardjohnson9611 Год назад

C4yt love you guys keep switching it up.

@scotttunstall9513 Год назад

It's so unfortunate that the rv dealerships don't tell you these things, and most of their employees have no clue about it. Glad you are now safely towing without breaking the law.

@badgerpa9 Год назад

The DMV people did not know, the RV sales would ask them. Kansas use to have an RV exception but the law was changed.

@waltaldridge2315 Год назад

Toddman, I had the same issues in Texas. They require the same, Class A non-cdl for over 26,001 pounds. Dealership told me I didn't need one. DMV was confused about the requirements. But so glad I did it too, written test and driving test. Piece of cake! And legal!!!!

@dmoreno4082 Год назад

Went to DOT classes several years ago in Texas and found out that livestock trailer haulers(horse trailers, goat trailers etc.) At 26k lbs needed a CDL. Many ranchers didn't know this.

@mike_adams Год назад

Great information. You would not believe the number of folks out here pulling these big rigs with single rear wheel 2500’s .. and they insist our 3500 duallys are unnecessary.

@brianroth7852 Год назад

Todd, All of this falls into one specific thing. It is called your domicile state. That is what is the most critical point. That is why you must do everything right when you decide to start traveling. Currently I live in Oregon. Under the State of Oregon guidelines I am required to have a Class B minimum to drive our HDT due to it having air brakes. Oregon does not have a destination between a Commercial Drivers license or other a Class B and A are both commercial. However you just are not mandated to have the medical since you are not performing for hire. How ever since I am for hire and have a Class A, I need to have the medical card. Now some drivers may have a medical card but have restrictions placed on them by the doctor. Such as a 30, 60, 90 day or 1 year card. Also doctors can say you are only allowed to drive intrastate and not cross country. Now back to the domicile state. We have chosen South Dakota as our domicile state. Once I retire in August we are selling everything and will be locating there for all intense purposes. That means all of our bills go there, our banking is there, our voting is there, our vehicle registration is there and our taxes. We are considered residents of the State of South Dakota.. As for driving your vehicle it is licensed in South Dakota same as you so you are bound by that states licensing requirements and all other state are required to recognize that. That's called reciprocity which is agreed to by each state. Now here's😮 where it could get really sticky if someone had a good attorney. Since most of us use You Tube and film videos for money because our channels are monetized. A good one could say we are a commercial operation and since we use our RVS to facilitate our living. Guess what you may need a COMMERCIAL DRIVERS LICENSE. JUST REMEMBER ATTORNEYS ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN ROB YOU WITH A BRIEF CASE AND NOT A GUN. Safe travels and roads Brian and Cindy, "xtreambydesign with passion"

@stevedenoyer5956 Год назад

100%, in Michigan a non commercial license is not required!

@jameswallace26 Год назад

I think it's great you got your license. RV dealers should be responsible to, at a minimum have you sign some papers making you aware of the law.

@rlcarver Год назад

I think its criminal that they sell these rigs without disclosure.

From a former trucker, thanks for sharing this info Todd 💗😊 others really need to know this!

@rodneymathews5885 Год назад

Thanks for the great information. In December of last year we changed our domicile from NY to FL. Both of us had CLD licenses because we drove school buses for over 35 years before retiring. When we changed to FL we gave up our CDL licenses since we didn't need them to drive our class-A motorhome.

@droiddavid2 Год назад

Todd, you did a wonderful job on this video. I am a over the road truck driver for over 40 yrs. Just having a CDL puts you in a club. What I mean is, your not a weekend warrior rv'r. some people get a better insurance rate for a professional license. If you do get a HDT in the future just get the air brake indorcment on your license for your own comfort of understanding the process and repairs needed for air brakes. It's your own peace of mind and keep in mind,if your over 26000, you might need to also put a NOT FOR HIRE sticker on the side of your pu.

@badgerpa9 Год назад

Kansas does not have an air brake endorsement listed for noncommercial vehicles that I saw in the statue. He does not have a CDL he has a noncommercial class A and the HDT as a vehicle has an exception for non commercial use for license plates.

@dhillman7522 11 месяцев назад

I have tried to explain this to many of the Other fulltime RV channels, But they don't think it applies. You are right the CHP, Trooper whoever pulls you over does not care what payload you have. They will look at the GVWR on the trailer and the truck then add them together for the GCVWR. You could be told to stop until someone with the proper license comes to tow your rig. If your in an accident your insurance will not cover you and you could be sued. What's even worse are poeple who tow way over the rating for the truck but that is a whole other conversation.

@greg9323 Год назад

CA has the same law. If your fifth wheel is over 15,000lbs you are required to have a Non-Commercial Class A. No backing, just driving around town, wow that was great. I had to go over the braking system, steering system, safety equipment, "pre-trip inspection" of the truck and fifth wheel. Then I was required to do backing monoverse, switch back backing and so on. Once I completed this then I did a road test. To maintain this license every two years, have to summit a medical certification. Yes, I heard the same thing from other's but think of this If you don't have the license, it will only take one guy who is up on the vehicle codes. Not only can he/she give tickets but can impound your truck and fifth wheel.

@donaldlajeunesse1455 Год назад

Very nice video. You taking responsibility for the weight being towed is great to hear.

@ceritapenman6112 Год назад

Thanks Todd for the good info. We live in Calif, and our friend got a non commercial class A license so he could double pull. He pulls a small aluminum boat behind his 5th wheel. We love your videos. Continue to be safe!❤

@sonnymassey4179 Год назад

Great video Todd I just went through the same thing this week in my state of South Carolina. I had CDL’s back in 2016 because I wasn’t driving I gave them up. They could have given me the class F license and I wouldn’t have had to go through the testing procedures. The girl at the front desk told me that I didn’t need them so I took her word. She was wrong. I had to take everything all over both the written test and the driving test.

@hmarv347 Год назад

How hard is it in South Carolina. I upgraded my tow rig and the new ratings have me over the 26k

@sonnymassey4179 Год назад

@@hmarv347 its just a process with the government you have to take a written test which isn’t that hard but the driving test is a pain. First you have to figure out where the test is given if you are in the upstate go to Spartanburg there the nicest. The driving test unfortunately isn’t based on your ability to maneuver, your RV it’s based on backing a box truck up into a dock area. On my driving test I had to drive through a small town.

@jdnunnery1082 Год назад

Great video, Todd. I'm sure lots of people out there are unaware of this. Switch it Up!!

@bigt2279 5 месяцев назад

Some states also require your tow rig to have clearance lights on top of hood. I did not read all comments so this may have been mentioned lol

@brianwilliams6113 Год назад

I’ve been arguing for this in the state of Kentucky for years. Sadly nobody seems to care. Case in point, you can drive a semi truck without CDL training in Kentucky, you just have to get a farm exemption on your license and be driving a farm registered vehicle. Can’t tell you how many farm registered vehicles I’ve seen over the years, that couldn’t pass a state vehicle inspection, let alone a DOT inspection. But the state looks the other way for some reason. Glad to know Kansas isn’t like that. More than the license, I’d rather see a national regulation for drivers training. Like you said, a truck pulling something 43’ long rows a lot different than a pickup with a pop-up. People need to understand the brake system their trailer is equipped with. How to pair it with their towing vehicle. What tire inflation pressures they need for their weight. Etc etc etc Great video as usual Todd 👍🏼

@andreatruelove9693 Год назад

Yep I’ve known this info for a long time in Texas.

@debsenko71 Год назад

We went through a similar experience in PA. My husband researched it before we started full timing and had both state troopers and dmv staff tell him he didn’t need a Class A non commercial. He drove for a year illlegally before getting it. Even then the DMV supervisor said he really didn’t need to get it as it was unlikely that he would ever be stopped. After he took the test, the same supervisor said it was good he got it because if he was ever in an accident withou the Class A license, it was like driving with no license at all.

@dkkauffmanjr Год назад

I am curious. I love in PA as well and I asked same thing. I was told same thing as your husband because our state doesn't have a non commercial class A. I've been stopped and checked and left go with no offense. So if our state law says it's okay and police say it's okay then we are still legal? And did he have to goto a CDL school for his license or was he able to do it with his truck and trailer? Thank you for any input you may be able to provide.

@technojerry Год назад

In NV the local DMV offices know the process for RV non-commercial Class A. The office in northern NV are pretty cool about it in that they allow you to drive your rig to the testing facility. I have heard in CA they will fail you if you drive to the test facility with the license or a learners permit with a licensed with you. The test in NV is more involved. It includes a 15 min Pre trip walk through including fluid levels, horn, lights, defroster (even in the summer), etc. Besides the road test with left turn, pull over and merge, it includes 100’ straight backup, 90 deg back into a slot, stopping accurate close, but behind a line, etc. There is of course a written test too. NV has the endorsement E for over 10,000 lbs. Non commercial is CGVWR at 26,001 and above. Think it is one reason Ford sells a F350 with a 10,000 GVWR sticker sticker so with a GVWR 16,000 trailer you are under even though I think the truck is built the same as my 11,500 GVWR F350.

@OurRoadLessTraveled Год назад

Great video Todd. I have been researching this since we moved to Texas. I should have looked at it before we got our licenses and left TX. Anything over 26k, meaning 26,001 lbs requires a Class A NON-CDL in Texas. 5th wheel owners 100% need one. Their law is confusing as there are two categories of exempt class A and B. Now I have to go back and get a new license. Truck is 14k and 5th wheel is 13.6k. Maria is not gonna be happy. Good news is it appears the test is only left and right turns in town and backing up in a straight line. Again, thanks for the video.

@robmcneill2967 Год назад

I was working on this very issue and had planned on making a information video about it but you pretty much got it all We live in Ontario Canada and have weight restrictions on driver licences. I just purchased a HDT to tow with and i coudnt get insurance without proving I was properly licenced...I hold a CDL equivalent licence and have been driving professionally for almost 40 years...im not the licence police, but i think some form of training & licence should be required for 8000lbs combined and above, just to keep north American HWY's safe. Thanks for doing the right thing and being a leader...👏👏👏👏👏👏‼️

Good PSA. Everyone should research this. You are correct that Florida doesn’t require this but probably should. I have seen to many Rv accidents due to improper loading or underrated trucks.

Thanks to you I was as confused as you on this subject. My State Nevada is the same, my weighed weight was 25456, under the 26001. My GVWRs are 14000 and 16000-over 30000- NEED NON Commercial. Note, my driving test was 2 hours. Now I am legal, thanks.

@robertcolpitts4534 Год назад

This is an outstanding video with excellent information. A friend of mine tows a triple rig (1-ton TV, 12K 5er, and a boat trailer with boat) and has been pulled over a couple of times. His issues: GCVWR and length. With the boat trailer, he was over the 26K TV + 10K trailer combined maximum and over the length limits; he needed a CDL. Texas has the 26K GVWR limit for a Class A with a maximum 10K trailer limit. There are a lot of people pulling big rigs with a regular Class A totally oblivious to the regulations. Many thanks for putting this together. It was very valuable. Safe travels, y'all! Bob and Dottie

Former Insurance Adjuster here...our boy Todd looking out for us! Preface: Every state and every insurance company has different exclusions and limitations. That said, there are some insurers that ABSOLUTELY WILL DENY your claim if you don't have the proper license and/or endorsement. "Just because you wanted to camping"

@jacobpayne2616 Год назад

I was a state trooper in WA last 10 years and have informed so many people of this. Most law enforcement aren’t going to make a big deal of having any special license requirements. But it is the law. And I have seen insurance companies not cover claims when they found out they didn’t have the licenses required. A lot of people are saying it’s by your domicile state… I’d be careful and I’ve seen claims not go through first hand. Rules of the road laws I know for fact in WA go by the state you travel in. Law enforcement isn’t expected to look up and or know other states laws. It’s the laws driving on the state you are in roadways. Odds of law enforcement coming after you is slim, but insurance companies will, they find every way out. But it is the law and lots of RVers Deny it but I gave heads up to every traffic stop I did that was around 30k lbs weight and marked it in my notes just so someday I gave them the warning and they can’t say haven’t been told that and been stopped before. Now owning my business as an RV tech I inform my customers of this. Hope more people watch this video and get the licenses needed verse regret it later. Thanks Todd!

@Luv2Bhitched Год назад

Great information. We have a similar law in Illinois. People become confused because RVs, and emergency vehicle operators are exempt from obtaining a CDL. However, Illinois law requires your driver's license cover the GVWR of the vehicle you drive or combined truck/trailer. This has nothing to do with commercial and everything to do with the GVWR. Your license must cover the GVWR. Good Job!!!

@JustWingingit2023 Год назад

Hey Tood It's good that you shared this with everyone as most don't know that it is a requirement for rigs over 26k We here in Ontario Canada have had this license requirement for a long time. Here it is called a restricted A As well if you are driving a truck with air brakes you also need a Z class air brake endorsement. This allows us to drive a HDT as long as the trailer is electric brakes. The Z endorsement is also needed for a class A motorhome if it has air brakes. Hope this helps any of your Canadian crew if they didn't know

@shellbobaround Год назад

Bobby And i had to both do this test in Cape Breton through alittle town and one way tight side street. To get a condition A on our drivers license. We both had to unhook the trailer, drive through little side streets and then back it up in the lot.. not everyone knows you need this is you are over 10,000 pounds. But we told if something happened in an accident you could be in alot of trouble if you didn’t have it. Cheers Shelley & Bob

@RandyandPetraJ Год назад

Thanks for this Todd! I’ve been pulling my rig (Texas registered, 395MS) for 2 years and had no idea! Why the heck doesn’t the vehicle registration tell you this when they register it? I mean, they ask for your DL, the weight of the rig, insurance, etc. It’s also shameful that the dealerships don’t tell you! I realize there is some confusion around it, but honestly it’s their job to know (both,vey reg and dealerships!) They are just setting owners up for lawsuits. I’m not too worried about being ticketed, it’s litigious clowns I’m more worried about! Thanks again, at least now I’m on the right path and will be spreading the word.

@patrickhamburg8113 Год назад

California law says if ur rv is between 10000 and 15000 lbs you need a non commercial class A license. All you have to do though is take the written test no diving test. Also when I another state as long as you are legal in your home state you are legal in any other state.

@user-bw6hr4do9z Год назад

C4YT: enjoyed this video; very informative. My guess is there are thousands of drivers that are unaware of this info. PLUS I also imagine there are a number of states that have non commercial laws that our consumers are unaware of. Thx again & happy camping.

@itsmeagain9119 3 месяца назад

In New Jersey, you’ll need a non-commercial Class A or B license to drive an RV weighing 26,001 pounds or heavier. Additionally, if you’re towing a vehicle with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) exceeding 10,000 pounds, you’ll need an Endorsement J for air brake if you have air brakes This is a quote from NJ MVA also note if you already have A cdl your good to go for your class

@melindaroberts4921 Год назад

Great video Todd! We are lucky as Rich has had his CDL for his entire adult life because he drove truck for a living and has kept it after retiring. But we have asked that question often, but he is good as he has the CDL. We also often ask the question about these big class A motor homes with air brakes? Great research and persistence.

@badgerpa9 Год назад

If you read the Kansas statue a CDL would not cover towing a noncommercial rig like an RV you would need to get a non commercial class A, B, or C license. The statue is worded poorly they use to have an RV exception like many states. Every state is different but Kansas is worded very poorly.

@melindaroberts4921 Год назад

Really! We are licensed in Florida. Always thought with the class A CDL he could tow any thing. Kansas is strange and the fact that they don’t even know their own laws is crazy. Good job on all your research Todd!

@AnchorsAwayRV 8 месяцев назад

Wow, Hi Todd, We have brought our A class RV in Texas (Diesel Pusher) and plan on having a toad. I only had my standard driver licence but thought I should check this out to see if I was ok. As it turned out, I was not ok, (in 15+ states), and it's the states that have a lot of the good stuff. As I am in Australia I had to get a CDL (Medium Rigid) to get an equivalent, but our "MR Class" is to a higher standard. So I can drive any vehicle with a GMV Greater than 8000 kgs (17600 lbs) no upper limit and towed vehicle of less than 9000 kgs (19800 lbs) Our RV is 23000 lbs GMV and the towed vehicle is 3600 lbs so we are 600 lbs over the limit. Brent

@donnag7434 Год назад

Thank you for posting this! I researched this 3 years ago when I was buying my class A- bc I could not believe how unregulated everything is- I’m in CA 26,000 pounds is the spot! Didn’t even realize when towing though you count the vehicle your driving! Good stuff!

@motocross_guy5212 Год назад

Great video. It's the same here in Texas. Anything over 26,000 lbs you got to get a non cdl license. Since I'm thinking about a super c I got to get a non cdl since they weigh more then 26,000Lb.

Yep,with a Florida license I can drive a big class a or hdt, doesn't matter, however with a Texas license must have a special license.... so if I get pulled over in Texas with my Florida license, I'm good.. but if someone gets pulled over in Florida with Texas license driving the same rig ,is technically illegal. 😅

Thanks for sharing Todd. To one of your key points in the video, it is a bit shocking/disappointing that the license bureau was not well informed and that folks don’t make this type of full discovery until they are in an untimely accident and don’t have the proper license. We are just under the 26K weight with our Class A and flat tow, but I’ll probably get the Non-CDL Class A for Kansas to keep our options open when looking for upgrading our current setup.

@DavidJohnson-ep1wf Год назад

Because of this video, I investigated what I needed in NY state. It took two trips to the DMV to find someone that had any idea what I was talking about. If you are over 26,001 pounds or over 40’ you need an RV endorsement. Like you I have a RAM Dually and a 41’ Solitude RV. For $10 they gave me two tickets to attempt the driving test. No written test required! I took the driving test two days ago and passed. Printed everything out and went to the DMV to have them put the RV endorsement on my license. When they called my number the lady had no idea what I wanted to do. She asked everyone around her and then called the DMV help center. The help center said I didn’t need the license unless it was a drivable RV. I showed the lady I front of me the website and she agreed with me but still didn’t know how to process what I was asking for. In the end she processed something, said I should get something mailed to me in the next two weeks. However, she said it may not be what I was actually asking for!! How crazy is this, the DMV folks process so few of these they don’t have a clue what to do with them?? I hope I get what I expect, but won’t be surprised when I don’t!!

@SwitchItUpLife Год назад

We just can’t believe it’s really this hard in some states!

@DavidJohnson-ep1wf 10 месяцев назад

When I got the license, they sent me the same license I already had. 🤬. I went back to the DMV and luckily I got the same lady. She said she was pretty sure she did it wrong. She then went on to tell me after hours she got together with all the other processors and they figured out how to get me what I wanted! She said in a couple more days I should get what I wanted! Lucky for me she was correct and I now have a single letter “R” endorsement on my NY license!!🎉🎉🎉

@AngelaFibroStargazer 10 месяцев назад

And now that you both have taken the special license have you checked with your insurance carrier to see if you qualified for any discounts? (It probably exists but it will take even more people to find out how to process it for you! But hopefully worth a try.)

@rlcarver Год назад

Yup. CA as well. I can't help my husband drive our toyhauler. States have started ticketing, especially when they see a CA license plate. My husband got his A to triple tow, but he has always needed it. You would think our insurance carriers would insist large rig owners have it. And dealerships should be advising their customers before they drive off the lot.

You get it I went down the same Rabbit Hole of the state of Tennessee over the length of RVs so I called the. Dot And if you are over 65 ft in Tennessee you must have a permit it's far as the length of RVs state of Tennessee like I said is 65 ft each state is different and the laws are different for drivable RVs versus Towing RVs that was my logic to if there was an accident if they found something wrong with the rig or you wasn't license property or didn't have a permit if you was over length awesome video

Yes. I went through same thing in Maryland. Their written test is based on CDL book. Once passed then learner’s permit is issued. You can take driving portion after you have held the learner’s permit for a period of time, I think it is 2 weeks. The driving portion is comprised of 3 sections and each must be passed to move to next! 1) pretrip inspection 2) driving skills test: forward tow and stop with front of vehicle in a box, straight line backing, forward tow and change to left lane without hitting cones and then reverse offset backing to right and stopping with back of trailer within a box. 3) on road test which includes interstate, secondary roads and in town towing. It was pretty intense and the person testing me didn’t know it was required. A state trooper gave me incorrect info, a motor vehicle employee gave me incorrect info and I finally spoke to someone in the state motor carriers unit who knew the law and what was required. It’s no wonder that many are not properly licensed for their RV.

Better safe than sorry. Now, we'll address that 22 foot Ram and that 43 foot RV... 65' maximum combined length in Kansas. You're cutting it awfully close there mister. 😄

Todd the Statue that it is under is Kansas legislature 8-234b. Classes of drivers' licenses sections (4), (5), and (6). It is worded very poorly and set up poorly. Kansas recently had a Motor Home and RV exception is why the people at the Department of Motor Vehicles are confused. If you look at statue in previous years you can see the changes. The State Of Kansas really needs to contact RV sales outlets and anyone with an RV licensed in the state and should give people a notification about this law. A HDT would likely fall under this exemption as personal. Would still apply to non commercial section (4) listed above. 8-2,127. Uniform commercial driver's license act; vehicles exempt from act. Vehicles that are exempt from this act include: (d) motor vehicles that would otherwise be considered commercial motor vehicles, if such vehicles are used solely and exclusively for private noncommercial use and any operator of such vehicles; The way the Kansas statue is worded a CDL would not be legal as your license for the noncommercial RV that needed a state noncommercial Class A or B license. It is very important to look up your states statues and read them, even print them to have when talking to a Department of Motor vehicle person about drivers license for you and vehicles license plates. Some states have lengths for RVs as short as 40 feet, you may get a 43 foot RV licensed but it will not work if you have an accident. Always good to cover this and remind people to check their state.

Great video. I too have been agonizing about the requirements here in SC. None of the dealers can tell me anything useful at all. The irony is that I currently have a 15,000lb GVWR 5th Wheel (41 ft) which I'm pulling with my F250 which has a GVWR of 10,500lb. No non-commercial class F license required. If I upgrade to an F350 dually (14,000lb GVWR), I now have to do a test to pull the same camper with a safer truck. Can't figure out the arbitrariness of it all. Been here a couple of years now in SC and not a single other person I've met with GCVWR > 26,000lb has a Class F endorsement. I emailed the SC DMV a few times now asking how I do the test, if I'm allowed to drive the F350 with the camper until I can do the test, how long do I have etc. but no response. Irony is if I fail the test in the F350 I'm still perfectly legal in the F250 with the same camper. Mind numbing.
