What are the laws for driving tractors and trailers on the highway? |
[Edit] |
Answer
In the United States, there is what's commonly called the CDL, commercial drivers' license, offered by the states' various department of motor vehicles, and standardized to accomodate interstate travel requirements with consistency between the states. Contact your local state department of motor vehicles or truck driving school.
Since 9-11, there is an effort to nationalize this license.
the states have to meet federal laws and requirements for cdl. you must be 18 to get a cdl, but care limited to intrastate operation untill u turn 21 ,when you can then go to interstate operation. the cdl is generally issued by the department of safety,or department of transport in each state
