Doing a little research on CDL requirement here in NJ. Our question is: do I need a CDL if my trailer in over 10,000 pounds but my combined vehicle, truck and trailer is UNDER 26,000 pounds? Specifically Commercial use, not for my RV.
Now this said in doing my research while I have NOT found an answer to the above I have found that NJ SPECIFICALLY EXEMPTS RVs from the CDL requirement. I could drive a 40 foot 50,000 pound Truck Conversion and tow a stacker trailer weighing in at 30,000 pounds with noting more than the same license my 20 YO daughter has to drive her Honda Civic AND with less training!
No I am not advocating that the government step in and require training or a license. I'd hope that most people intelligent enough to earn enough money to buy a big rig would also be smart enough to know that they don't know and avail them selves of some training on their own. Yeah, like that will happen.
