I didn't get a learners permit and one was not offered when I got a CDL with doubles endorsement. What LEOS look for that they can see is a 3/4 ton pulling a triple axle trailer. Just do it, towing double now for 6 years and not one LEO in the southwest has given me a second look.
I don't know anything about the process of getting a CDL but it wouldn't surprise me if learner's permits were not issued for that.
It may be that many peope drive or tow without the proper license but IMHO either doing so or advising people to do so is, IMHO, stupid, extremely foolish. What happens if there's an accident where an improperly licensed driver has his insurance claim denied because he is driving out of his class? He could be bankrupted and someone who needs medical care may not be able to get it because there isn't money to pay for it... for example. Lives could be ruined and it certainly wouldn't be the first time.
