In the United States, there is what's commonly called the CDL, commercial drivers' license, offered by the states' various department of motor vehicles, and standardized to accomodate interstate travel requirements with consistency between the states. Contact your local state department of motor vehicles or truck driving school.
Since 9-11, there is an effort to nationalize this license.
the states have to meet Federal Laws and requirements for cdl. you must be 18 to get a cdl, but care limited to intrastate operation until u turn 21 ,when you can then go to interstate operation. the cdl is generally issued by the department of safety,or department of transport in each state
AnswerThere's more than just the CDL--you've got the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, plus every state has its own traffic laws. Add to that all the cargo regulations, especially for hazardous cargoes. I carry three inch-thick books in my tractor, and they don't even cover half of it.Wiki User
