I love when this topic comes up. Retired from 41 years of Driver License administration. State law in each state lays out who can drive and what private drivers drive.
The Federal government (ICC) (DOT) governs commercial laws and makes exceptions to States regarding to speed, weights,width and heights. They created the CDL licensing rules, and define the CDL vehicle classes, and the endorsements used by the States on those licenses.
The Driver License Compact (DLA) is an agreement entered into by all the states and administered by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators(AAMVA)..look here .
The compact allows each State to create their own set of non CDL licensing laws, but requires every state to honor the rules set forth by the driver's home State. Note, AAMVA, the Compact (DLA) only applies to non CDL operators. Your state may require a special license for an RV (private vehicle/non CDL, but every compact state must honor the rules of a traveler's home state
Safe travels everyone.
