Had a long conversation today with 2 different MTO staff (I called twice) first time "you need a CVOR and a A-R.
A restricted A is 90% of a commercial licence -medical ,eye test, on and on The only thing you can't do is pull a air brake trailer. I don't think RV's are meant to be subjected to this.
So I called again "motorhome exempt"
sigh
Like jaxdad stated they are after the hotshotters using F550's and running commercial but under the radar ,but for the sake of a few hundred lawbreakers a 100,000 rv's get abushed,I doubt they could accommodate all of us if we suddenly showed up for our AR.
The first person was right, you need a Class A/R license (assuming your bus doesn't have air brakes). They were wrong in that you don't need a CVOR and you can't drive a 'regular' highway tractor.
The second person was also partly correct, a Motorhome is exempt from needing a CVOR. It is NOT exempt from the weight limit before an A or A/R is needed.
