Bus question

[Dan05979]

I was looking at my license, I hold a class 'A' with 'P' endorsment with many other endorsements and I have a restriction that reads;

 

Passenger Restricted to class B, I didn't understand this restriction since I never seen a class A bus before so I did a search and that restriction applies for these guys;

 

Does the MTA require you to have a 'Ap' to drive these or its just a 'Bp'?

[Noflexdont]

all i have is B CDL with P endorsement i drove those for a year with the MTA. Best bus i ever drove.

That restriction means that you took a road test on a passenger vehicle of a B class.

You are not alowed to drive A class passenger vehicles ( we dont have 80,000 pounds passenger buses

 

 

I have the same restriction

 

I took road test on school bus as well as on an 18 wheeler

Yeah but you can only have 1 CDL right? so did you fail the

road test with the 18 wheeler?

I think what he means is the same thing I did. I took my B first in a school bus then a few years later I took the A, so I have that passenger restriction to class B vehicle. But there is no class A bus, unless they means those articulated buses wich are a combination vehicle.

 

You only hold 1 cdl license.

No i did not fail,

I had A ( truck ) then added Bp ( school bus )

 

So now i have A with P (with restriction to class carry people only in class B vehicle )

[KNIGHTRIDER3:16]

( P is all needs to drive any 40-60plus those they train you on but as for the restriction ,you should be ok just as long as you have P End.

When they train you with those tractor trailer buses do they go over backing up into spots or its not neccesary?
