Most school busses are what we call air over hydrolics which most cases don't need class a. Also anything with a total weight of 26000 pounds class required. The use of log books depends on mileage if your traveling anything more then 100 air miles or are returning back to start point within 12 hours log books not required. Most states will allow the snowbirds to slide. Once again aimed at vehicles weighing in or over 26 thousand sounds total weight. Most toters and trailers weigh in close to 80000 loaded. Also these new rules can be found online and have been and was on the news. Toters have to have the yearly inspection done trailer too.
Posted via Mobile Device not to sound like a mean guy or anything most people can tell the difference between a motorhome and a semi. Ask any truck driver and they will tell you its not right for the toters to not be required to have the yearly inspection done. Most of the new laws are due to the race teams and joe blows lawn business. Been reading my dot book and it states any vehicle weighing in or over 26001 pound you need cdl. School bus drivers are required by new laws to have cdl. Reason being you are for hire. Cab drivers are required to have it most companies don't push that issue.
