Holy Moly Hot Wheels, Batman!

From The Roemer Report, July, 2011 

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is reworking its standards for commercial driver’s license testing, and creating a new commercial learner’s permit (CLP). In a rule published in the May 6th Federal Register, the agency completed a three-year effort to correct shortcomings in the driver testing and licensing system. The rule, scheduled to take effect in July, requires states to issue a learner’s permit to would-be truck drivers. Applicants will have to pass federally-approved CDL knowledge and skills tests, clear a check of their driving record, and hold the learner’s permit for at least two weeks before they apply for a CDL. The minimum age for a learner’s permit is 18. To learn more, go to www.fmcsa.dot.gov and search “learners permit.”
