I hope you have class A CDL to drive that trailer. It is an articulated

Aye, but you only need the CDL if your driving commercially. If wanted,
any bloke could go out and buy a semi with a trailer and as long as it
was for personal use only there is no need for a CDL.

Scary eh? heh


What is scarier is that police almost impounded the trailer that I was
towing, with a Bridgeport mill, even though it was not commercial. I
was lucky to have a laptop with me with Internet and I showed them the
rules.
