Allow all persons serving in the reserves to be eligible for certain CDL waiver

Commercial driver test waivers for reservists

This law lets current reservists and honorably discharged reservists skip the CDL skills test, the knowledge test, or both. It removes a prior full-time service requirement. Waivers can also apply to passenger, tank, and hazardous materials endorsements. - Skills test waiver: In the last year you worked in a military driving role and were exempt under 61-8-803; you drove a similar vehicle for at least 2 years before separation; and in the 2 years before you apply you had only one civilian license at a time, no suspensions, no disqualifying offenses (61-8-802), no accident-related traffic convictions (not parking), and no at-fault crashes. - Knowledge test waiver: In the last year you served in a listed specialty (e.g., 88M, 14T, 92F, 2T1, 2F0, 3E2, 3531, Navy EO) and you now operate or just operated a similar vehicle; plus you meet the same license/suspension/offense rules and have no serious traffic violations under 61-8-803 in the last 2 years. - Endorsements: In the last year your military job required passenger CMV, tank CMV, or hazmat work; you have only one civilian license; no disqualifying offenses (61-8-802); no more than one serious traffic violation (61-8-803); no accident-related traffic convictions; and no at-fault crashes.
