By Walter Kennedy


There are different qualifications needed in order to drive a commercial vehicle like trucks and buses. While the base qualifications are simple, there is still a whole process to go through to get the right certification to drive these vehicles. The regular class D license is not enough, but it is one of the requirements for eligibility for the special certification.

Laws regarding the procurement of this permit vary from one state to another. Commercial driver license NJ qualifications may be different from the qualifications in CA. For example in New Jersey, a CDL is required to drive a limo, or a van for hire that can transport eight to ten people. Some states do not have that requirement.

Whoever applies should already be 18 years old to able to maneuver around the state and at least 21 for interstate jurisdiction. The candidate is required to have at least a 20 to 40 eye sight capacity with out without glasses. They should know how to tell amber, green and red apart and recognize them properly.

After the knowledge test has been successfully passed, then the candidate can now proceed to claiming his learner permit. The permit judicially allows the applicant to practice driving the vehicle he intends to be licensed for. Choosing a the vehicle the candidate plans to handle is vital in identifying and proceeding to class endorsement after he gets the CDL.
