What type of vehicle is NOT eligible to be operated under a Class B Exempt License?

A Class B Exempt License is specifically designed for operators of certain types of vehicles that do not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) under federal and state regulations. Vehicles eligible for this license typically include some trucks and buses that meet weight and passenger limitations, but the important distinction is the weight category.

In this context, a vehicle over 26,000 pounds is not eligible for operation under a Class B Exempt License because it surpasses the weight limit established for this classification. Vehicles that weigh more than 26,000 pounds usually require a Class B license or a higher CDL due to their size and the increased responsibility involved in driving them.

In contrast, motorcycles, vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 25,999 pounds, and vehicles that do not require a CDL are all within parameters that can be operated under a Class B Exempt License. Therefore, understanding the specific weight regulations helps clarify why the option regarding vehicles over 26,000 pounds is the only one not eligible for this particular license.
