Depends on the vehicle. You can run line haul in a tractor-trailer or straight truck. If you're running a tractor-trailer, you need a Class A. If it's a straight truck, you need a Class B.
Depends on which Class of CDL. A driver with a Class C CDL is not licensed on that vehicle. A driver with a Class B CDL can drive that combination only if the GVW of the trailer is less than 10,000 lbs. A driver with a Class A CDL can drive it.
Before you can become a class c driver, you must have your cdl license. The cdl license is given to you by the state you live in.
No Degree, but You do need a CDL (commercial driver's license) which classs depends on what you are transporting/Class of truck. There are CDLs - A, B, C. A is for Semi trucks 80,000GVW. I think CDL C is for like school bus driver's.
To operate ANY vehicle which requires a CDL of ANY class in ALL states (this is federal law - it doesn't vary by state), the driver must have, along with the appropriate class of CDL (A, B, C), a DOT Medical Card. However, this is assuming you're were referring to a Class C CDL - several states issue a non-CDL Class C licence.
Not sure what you mean, exactly. Class A is considered the "higher" classification, yes. If you have a Class A CDL, you can operate vehicles requiring that class of licence or any class below that. You could operate a vehicle requiring a Class B CDL, for example, but a driver with a Class B CDL wouldn't be permitted to operate a combination requiring a Class A CDL.
Yes. You have to have some class of unrestricted drivers licence before you can get a CDL.
Yes, you will need insurance to drive with a CDL license.
CDL Class B
Yes you do need a cdl for a job as a UPS driver. A CDL license is a commercial drivers license and since a UPS driver drives a commercial vehicle on public roads the driver does need this specialized license.
If it's designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver), then yes, you need a CDL of the class appropriate to the vehicle, as well as a passenger endorsement.
Career Builder is a good place to start. Going to that site and typing into the search field "Class B Driver" will lead you to jobs that need a Class B CDL for the job required.
At the same agency which issues any other class of driver's licence. However, if you need to be trained and qualified to receive a CDL, you typically have to go to a truck driving school.
