California Non-Commercial Class-A Questions
My 35' pull trailer has a GVWR in excess of 10,000LB, so I have decided I want to go get my California Non-Commercial Class-A license (to add to my Class-C and Class-M). FYI my TV is a 2012 F-250 6.7...

Also the DUI is .04 even when in your own vehicle when you have a Commercial license,all under federal guidelines.
These are the reasons that I surrendered my Commercial Class A license when I retired after having that license for more than 40 years.

According to the text of law (vehicle Code 23152D) "(d)?It is unlawful for a person who has 0.04 percent or more, by weight, of alcohol in his or her blood to drive a commercial motor vehicle, as defined in Section 15210"
Per the text of law and several conversations with CHP officers, the .04 applies only when operating a vehicle that is considered commercial (which could include your non-commercial combination if a higher level of license is required). The CHP guys have said this is a very common misconception.
