Best Answer

You need to describe what you mean by 'personal use'. Vehicles of the following types are exempted from CDL requirements:

  • Recreational vehicles and motor homes
  • Military vehicles
  • Firefighting/first response vehicles
  • Registered farm vehicles

If yours doesn't fit into any of this criteria, you need to check with your DMV on this, and get a letter of determination from them.
