Well aware of it. You're required to abide by the truck speed limit if it's over 10,000lbs.

Don't forget, if you tow anything behind your rig, you must obey the posted truck speed limit, I thought we covered this after TP got his ticket?
Originally posted by: 2mnyToyz I will say that the new RV has a much bigger feel to it, width wise. Even though they're both the same width. I prefer to do the required truck speed limit in this one.

Correct me if I'm wrong, State Patrol says any vehicle in combination, regardless of weight, must obey truck speed limit.

Well Happy has proved that a special Liscence is required for RVer, I stand corrected. NOW my next question is When you pay your money and get your RV endoresment do you need to show prove of "HOW TO" or do they just turn you lose and tell ya to "have a nice day"

Same law in Texas, but over 26,000 you need a special endorsement, not connected to the CDL in any way. They say many states are going to this new endorsement to generate revenue, charging you for the endorsement and getting caught on the road without one, if you're licensed in that state. California has the over 40' MH endorsement, you need it only if you are licensed in California.

Standard License with a Class C endorsement............????????
Is this JUST Illinois ???????????
It's also a state law and not federal law that governs CDL drivers..........

To drive an RV in the state of Illinois that has a GVWR of 16,000 to 26,001 pounds you now need a Class "C" drivers license which is not a standard driver's license.
Guess it varies from state to state

I don't know about the combination part. Either way, my pickup + 2,300lbs, or my MH alone meet the requirement.

Auto stage.
"Auto stage" means any motor vehicle used for the purpose of carrying passengers together with incidental baggage and freight or either, on a regular schedule of time and rates: PROVIDED, That no motor vehicle shall be considered to be an auto stage where substantially the entire route traveled by such vehicle is within the corporate limits of any city or town or the corporate limits of any adjoining cities or towns.

In Texas, you just need to pass a written test, from what I read and understand, but don't quote me that you don't have to take a driving test in Texas.
It prints out on your license like a motorcycle or CDL endorsement does.
Not trying to correct anybody, just in a researching mood tonight [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
