That is how I read it too. People wish it wasn't so but you need a doubles endorsement. But was it legal in the past with a non commercial license?

Not that I know of, the non commercial A license is fairly new, I started doing this in the early 90's with the CDL and the doubles endorsement. Believe me almost every time I headed out I got to talk to a CHP officer, but after he or she looked at my CDL with all of the endorsements and my medical card in a few instances I was set free and told to be careful.

Ether way you will be looked at very carefully by the CHP, they don't see much of that in California.
