Take the General Knowledge written test (and the Air Brakes written test, if applicable), as well as the written tests for any endorsements you need. Pass them. Pay the fee for your permit.

To drive a cement truck legally, you need a class B CDL (Commercial Drivers License). At 18, you can apply for a class B CDL.

You will need a Class B CDL with tanker endorsement.


Do you need a cdl to drive a fire truck in ga?

Firefighting and emergency vehicles are exempt from CDL requirements under federal law. While it wouldn't hurt to have a CDL, it's not necessity. Georgia, however, has non-CDL Class A and B licences, and you'd most likely be required to have one of those. You have to take a computer test & get a class B noncommercial learning permit. After that log a certain number of hours driving the apparatus. Return to the DMV with a form from your Chief & they will swap your learning permit with a regular noncommercial class B license.

Had your CDL permit a class but how do you get a b CDL permit without paying again?

You're going to have to pay for the permit... no two ways about it. If you take the written tests, the only thing you'll have to pay for until you get an actual CDL is the permit itself, and you can take those tests at the DMV - you don't have to go to a truck driving school for that.


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.


Can I use my Florida CDL B permit in NY or do I have to take the permit test again in NY?

You need to check with the DMV on this one. CDL standards are federally established, and don't vary state-to-state, but states still have some determination. You're probably going to have to take at least the written portions of the test (General Knowledge, Air Brakes (if applicable) again, and you'll need to be a vehicle to do a pre-trip on and take a road test in before you can get it switched from a permit to a Class B CDL.


Would you need a CDL to drive a semi with out a trailer?

Does the type of brakes on trucks determine if you need a cdl license?

No. The weight determines what class licence you must obtain (there are non-CDL Class A and B licences available), and the usage is what determines whether or not you actually need a CDL class licence to operate it.
