License to drive motor homes over 26,000 lbs.

A guy I know said he heard people were being pulled over on I-78 near Hamburg,Pa and cited for not having a license to drive a motorhome over 26,000 lbs.He looked online and found nothing so he called his state rep and he eventually got a call from someone at PennDOT that yes, you need a license and he arranged to take his test. Did anyone else hear of this?

  • Some state do require Non Commercial CDL type licences. Sounds like PA does for residents. Here in Michigan they don't, and I wouldn't think twice about driving through PA or any other state that required them.
