I was told by DMV that a Non Commercial was not required in the state of Kansas and that was in March shortly after I purchased a motorhome with GVWR of 36,400. Then a guy I know got pulled over for speeding in 1 ton truck and 5er that was over total of 26,001 GVWR and was ticketed. I returned to DMV and the lady at desk said it wasn't true and she gets ask that a lot and said that the 26,001 restriction on the back of my license does not pertain to RVs. Her supervisor over heard her and said that found "out the other day" they are required and after a quick call to the state DMV office and it was confirmed. Then the lady at the desk said to her supervisor that I was first one that ever ask that question.
Come to find out that it also includes trucks and 5ers. so........
Truck GVWR of 11,500 subtracted from 26,001 leaves a max RV of 14,501 over that class A is required.
Truck GVWR of 14,000 subtracted from 26,001 leaves a max RV of 12,001 over that class A is required.
Motor home over 26,001 and less than 10,000 pull behind requires a Class B and over 10,000 requires a Class A
This requirement is for Kansas and my not apply in all states but check yours and out of state people are can drive to the limits of their states license.
I think what upset me the most was the 12,000 miles I drove since March in my motorhome and thousands I drove with 5er with the wrong class license.
