This will depend on:
What use the bus is put to. Are you carrying passengers? Then yes CDL required
What licence it has on it. Non commercial non passenger may not require CDL
Air brakes. CDL required.
You can only hold one CDL, so there's no need to pluralize it. Any bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver), you need a CDL with a passenger endorsement.
No... to drive a bus unsupervised, you need an unrestricted, full-on CDL license, with a passenger endorsement. You may not legally operate a bus - loaded or empty - otherwise.
NO...you do not need cdl's to drive your personal bus but is you hire it out you will have to...note:check your state laws to make sure. In the State of Ohio the rule to determine if you need a CDL License to drive a personal bus is determined by the number of seats the bus has. 15 including the driver-yes. 14 or less including the driver-no. Private or public does not matter.
Class C CDL with School Bus endorsement.
In Kentucky, you generally need a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) to operate a bus that is designed to transport 16 or more passengers, including the driver. However, if the bus is used solely for personal purposes and does not meet the criteria for a commercial vehicle, you may not need a CDL. It's essential to check local regulations and ensure your vehicle complies with any specific requirements. Always verify current laws, as regulations can change.
Class C CDL with School Bus endorsement.
CDL... Commercial driver license.. Think about it.
Your son can get a CDL License in Minnesota at 16, however, he can only drive a commercial vehicle within the state of Minnesota, until he reaches the age of 21 years of age,as federal regulations require that interstate drivers be at least 21. Drivers must be at least 16 years old to get a regular CDL license in the state of Minnesota. CDL drivers must be at least 21 years old for a hazardous materials endorsement. The minimum age for school bus drivers in Minnesota is 18.
i believe so.
A CDL is not required until the capacity of the bus is greater than 15 people (including the driver).
No... If you don't drive a vehicle requiring a CDL, you don't need a CDL. For a vehicle of 26,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or less, the only times you'd need a CDL would be if it was hauling a quantity of hazardous materials which required visible placards, or if it was a bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver).
Yes. In NYS you need a CDL-B with Passenger and School Bus endorsements, as well as a current DOT Medical Certificate
