Only in very limited circumstances. If it's a for-hire vehicle, then no. If it's a registered farm vehicle, and you are either the farmer, immediate family of the farmer, or a direct employee of the farmer, and that vehicle is used on a not-for-hire basis solely in support of that farm's activities, and it is within a 150 mile radius of the farm, then you don't need a CDL to drive it, although states will have their own licencing requirements for vehicles of this class which are exempt from regulation by the FMCSA.

Can you drive a semi with 57 on your license?
You would have to explain what state your licence is from, and whether or not that's a restriction code. To drive a semi, you would need a Class A CDL (unless it's a registered farm vehicle, exempt from CDL requirements, in which case, your state is free to establish their own licencing requirements). I know in North Carolina, a "No tractor trailer" restriction on a Class A CDL was an "8" restriction. Taking a quick glance, I can see that 57 is a CDL restriction code in Tennessee. If TN is your state, then your answer would be no - 57 is the "except tractor-trailer" restriction code for that state.
