The regulations for CDLs come from a federal agency known as the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. The level of difficulty in obtaining one doesn't really differ at all between states. Getting a CDL isn't difficult, although actually making it in the industry is a different matter altogether. But that aside, you have a couple options as to how you want to approach this, depending on what class of CDL you're trying to get. You can either go to a truck driving school, or you can take the written tests for your permit, and, if you have a vehicle available, use that for the pre-trip and road test.

Does CDL class A override a CDL class B?
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.
