No need of a special license to operate MH.
Like any vehicle it requires getting use to is all.
You learn to steer from the middle, and from just before the rear tires too.
We've been driving ours when it moves for only 11 years though.
And of course we have air brakes no special skills set or training needed.
I've had semi drivers question that. I've driven flat bed in Nam and nothing special needed.
What some of us are saying is that a non-commercial heavy vehicle license may be a good idea, even if not required in your jurisdiction.
I was driving Semis long before I had any drivers license. Even though I was proficient at it, I still had to get the CDL before I could legally drive on the road. The point is the the license it a bit of proof to the rest of us that you know what you are doing.
While your A probably has automatic slack adjusters on the brakes, it would still be good for you to know how to properly check brake adjustment.
