Endorsements and/or restrictions questions

[RebelDarlin]

HOLY CRAP how was this worth digging up from over a year and a half ago?

Silly me, I thought endorsements were kinda important in this industry.

it's easier than thinking of a new subject

If the info is already here, why not just add to it instead of reinventing the wheel?

Do you two really have nothing better to do?

So,if for some unknown reason I ever decide to haul fuel,etc,would I need the N and X or just the X? I assume that the N is non-hazmat tanker,and the X is hazmat tanker? If ya haul water or any other non-hazmat tanker,and ya start hauling fuel,you have to get the X? Would the X work for the non-hazmat as well as the hazmat? I wouldnt wanna be a rollin refinery,but I was just curious..

You would need only the "X". The "X" endorsement supersedes the "N" endorsement because what you have actually done is taken both the tanker and hazmat endorsement tests and passed them. They are "combined" to become "X". No fathomable reason....a bureaucrat, lacking anything meaningful to do, apparently fancied the letter "X" and stuck it in there.

I have a "M" on mine.

Mine reads 'XTPWM' - that's Tank/Hazmat, Doubles/Triples, Passenger, Tow Truck, & Metal Coil.

I drove light wreckers before I started driving rigs. I wouldn't mind driving heavy wreckers, if it wasn't for the winter - crawling around in the snow on the side of the road when it's 10 degrees out isn't my idea of a good time.

"M" in FL is "Motorcycles"....I do believe. 8)

[supertruckertucker]

M is for motorcycles in most states I would assume

In Illinois M is a CLASS, not an endorsement.
In NY M is an endorsement for Metal coils.
