Texas CDL class B

[timvasqz]

the hype about using the proper license is all off the mark. even with the
proper license used, that use is no defense for careless driving. or operating
an unsafe vehicle. most of the folks who worry about this stuff define their
motorcoach 'personal' to limit their need for a commercial license then they
register the motorchoach as owned by a LLC to avoid yet another set of fees and
rules. I love the line "keep a copy of the statute with you and show it to a cop
who tries to give you a ticket" Thats as good as me saying " officer, cut me a
break my boyfriend 's a cop"
I think these busses should require commercial license issue with drug/alc
monitoring, safety checks, special training and twice the impact fines ( oh
yea,smog check requirements as well)

Class A or B (nothing about CDL) is required for any vehicle over 26K, and there
is no RV exemption in that chapter.
