I have the Class B for my motor home and trailer less than 10,001 lbs GVW.

It really is confusing for people and what makes it worse is there are as many ideas on what the rules mean as there are police officers to try and enforce them.

My 2 Cents
Thank you.I'm just running senarios through my head.I currently am a CDL B w/air.
