Drivers License Requirments

You will need to get the GVWR of your towing unit and add it to the GVWR of the trailer (only if the GVWR of the trailer is over 10,000), if the two numbers add together come up over 26,001 GVWR, you will need a class A CDL. Say you have a truck with a GVWR of 12,000 GVWR and a trailer with a 16,000 GVWR, a total of 28,000 GVWR, you would need a class A CDL. If the two numbers are not above 26,001 GVWR or your trailer is not above 10,000 GVWR, you should check your state to find what lic. you should have, you would not need a CDL. Comes from a CDL tester.
