Matter covered is on a small number of chapters in the CDL book and they tell you what chapters to study. Mostly lengths, lights, weights and things like that. Then I took about a two mile road test with a DPS officer in the Bluebird. His parting words were "Did you notice I didn't ask you how you got it here without a license".

I also had people tell me that I should just take a chance and not bother to get a correct license. I did not follow all that free advise and went ahead took the test and got my no restriction class B license My present license is good until 2013 and if I am still driving a coach I will get it renewed. > > Chet Geist > 1981/FC33/ Austin, Texas > > > -----Original Message----- > From: WanderlodgeForum@ yahoogroups. com [mailto:Wanderlodge Forum@yahoogroup s.com]On Behalf Of Wallace Craig > Sent: Monday, March 30, 2009 6:33 PM > To: WanderlodgeForum@ yahoogroups. com > Subject: Re: [WanderlodgeForum] Texas RV Drivers License > > > > > > > > > > > Wallace Craig > 95 WLWB 42 > Azle, Texas > > --- On Mon, 3/30/09, Wallace Craig wrote: > > > From: Wallace Craig > Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Texas RV Drivers License > To: wanderlodgeforum@ yahoogroups. com, "wanderlodge forum" , "ron marabito" , "Ernie Eckbert" , "Ralph Fullenwider" > Date: Monday, March 30, 2009, 6:28 PM > > > > > > > > In the April issue of FMCA magazine at page 70 there is a brief article that purports to set forth that motorhomes weighing in excess of 26,000 requires that the operator have a Texas Class B noncommercial license. It requires a written and driving test and cost $10. Normally, one might entertain the idea of simply taking ones chances; however I am concerned about the legal ramifications on ones libality insurance coverage. I can imagine that an insurance carried would take the position that the vehicle was being operated without a proper license and that such is a violation of the policy terms and would void the policy. I am unaware of the case law (if any) in Texas on this issue but would not care to test the law with the insurance carrier in case of an accident. A spokesperson for the Texas DPSstatesthat the test must be in the class vehicle they would like to drive.
