Texas driving requirement for motor homes

[Wallace Craig]

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

I have searched the Texas statutes concerning whether or not drivers of
RV;s must have a commercial in Texas. Section 522 of VATS sets up requirements
for commercial operator license. Section 555.004 (4) specifically excludes from
CDL the driver of a recreational vehicle; in the same section RV is said to mean
a motor home, along with trailers,etc. meant for temporary occupancy as a home.

In short, Texas does not require the driver of an RV, regardless of
weight or length, to have a CDL. From my experience, I have found that most DPS
license offices do not know this.
