I got what I thought was a simple question. I called the DMV and went there and asked and didn't really get an answer. So here goes.
I have a 15ft boxtruck 12000#. I don't need a CDL to drive this truck.I am thinking about signing on with a company that requires all the drivers to have a CDL-B at least.
Here's the question: Can I take the CDL test in this truck???
When I call or go in in person the the clerk or whatever she is at the DMV reads me the rules from the book. It says I must take the test " in the type of vehicle for which you are to be licensed" So I pointed out my truck in the parking lot and asked can I take it that. Her answer was I guess so. It seems like it would take an act of congress to get to actually talk to the person that gives the test.
My guess is, since this truck does not require a CDL-B to drive I can't take the test in it. I have to make an appointment to take the test,so I don't want to show up in the wrong truck. But it would be great if I could take it in my own truck. Any thoughts?
