X is a combination of Hazmat (H) and tanker (N) endorsements.
The X endorsement is a combination of two endorsements - Hazmat (H) and tanker (K).
HME won't be seen on a CDL - the endorsement for hazmat on a CDL is H, or X if it's in conjunction with a tanker endorsement. HME is often used as a shortened form of "hazmat (or 'hazardous materials') endorsement".
You can have a CDL (Commercial Driver's License) without a Hazardous Materials Endorsement, but you have not have the HazMat Endorsement without a CDL.
T - twin and/or triple trailers N - tanker endorsement H - hazardous materials endorsement Most states will place an X endorsement on the licence of a driver if they have N and H endorsements - X is a combination of hazmat and tanker.
You MUST have a CDL in order to get a hazmat endorsement.
No, you cannot.
As for endorsements exclusive to a CDL, you can get hazmat, passenger, and tanker endorsements. You can also get a motorcycle endorsement, which can be placed on any class of licence. The only endorsement you wouldn't be able to get is the endorsement for double and triple trailers.
In the CDL handbook. Doubles and triples endorsement is nothing more than a rehash of the Combination Vehicles written test.
K is not an endorsement it is a restriction for intrastate only. That means a CDL with a K restriction is only valid in the issuing state only.
Yes. A CDL doesn't nullify the requirement for a motorcycle endorsement.
An "H" endorsement on a Commercial Drivers License "CDL" means that a driver is qualified to transport hazerdous materials.
You would need the N (tanker) and H (hazmat) endorsements. Most states issue an X endorsement as a combination of N and H.
