What kind of license do you need to drive a semi truck?
In the United States, a semi truck - unless its use falls under one of the exempt categories and criteria defined by the FMCSA (e.g., farm truck exemption, emergency vehicle exemption, et. al) - you need a Class A Commercial Drivers License which does not have the "no air brakes" restriction or the "no tractor-trailers restriction".A full grown Semi tractor trailer: CDL-A (Commercial Drivers License) it will cost you approximately anywhere from $2500 -$5000 to take the course. If you get hired on by certain companys such as Schneider, PAM, USA, England plus others they will either send you to class or teach you themselves.This license allows you to drive other trucks also such as a dump truck, garbage truck etc.... these only require a CDL-B class license. However the reverse is NOT true. If you have a CDL-B you are not qualified to drive a full grown semi tractor trailer. Hope this helps youo. Steve

Does a mechanic need a CDL to road test fire trucks?
He needs a CDL to drive a fire truck on the highway. Most heavy duty truck mechanics have that license. In my state (CT) you can drive a fire truck with a Class B (straight truck CDL) or what we call a Q endorsement which is a fire apparatus only endorsement of your normal license. You take the Class B test and they'll give you just the Q. I don't think its as "governed" as the CDL is. On another note the Q endorsement lets you drive any FD truck from the little ones to the 80,000 lb ladder truck if you get checked out on it. I understand the intent of the law or allowance I should say, but there are considerations,hazards, and skill about handling that kind of weight which was covered in my Class A CDL class that weren't really mentioned on my Q. If that ladder was a commercial vehicle you would need an A license for that weight.
