im curious, if you lose your CDL, does that mean it reverts back to a class C or does that mean you don't have any liscence at all?
If you get your Class A suspended, will your drivers liscence revert back to a Class C?

Generally it goes back to the lowest level but it depends on what it was suspended for
brian991219 and tscottme Thank this. -
So if I get pulled over in my personal car I won't get in trouble for something I did in my big rig?
I was in a situation where I got a ticket for speeding in Indiana, went 10 mph over, I then lost my job and had no way of paying the ticket, tried to extend time however they denied me..
I got a new job here in Texas just recently (my career, not trucking) however I remembered the ticket I didn't pay, that I will pay once I get my first paycheck
My question is, if Texas pull me over in my personal vehicle, will I be In trouble for the unpaid ticket I got in my big rig?
Like I said, I was going through rough times but things are looking up and I will be able to pay the ticket soon -
I'm not sure... but I'm thinking it will still show up. Did you get your class C and class A in Texas? I was told that the license number on our Class C won't change when we get our CDL. Hope this helps. Good luck

Class C & A in California, just recently moved to Texas, asking before I switch and get a Texas ID
-
sorry still don't know. But I do know in the state of Texas you can have a state ID or a state driver's license, not both. So the question may be asked if you ever had a driver's license in the last X number of years.
-
So if you get pulled over in your personal car, what drivers license are you going to give them? In Texas you have 10 days to change over your driver's license once you move here.
Don't get caught with a suspended license and don't get caught without a license. That could end up being 2 more tickets. -
Sorry, I meant I'm about to apply for a Texas Drivers Liscence (Class C). Was wondering if they will allow me to, even if my offense was in a commercial vehicle

Do you know for sure your Class A was suspended? I can't comment specifics because I don't know all the pertinent laws in the different states but it may be salvageable in the process hasn't gone too far. If your whole licence was suspended, not just the Class A part, thats another matter altogether. You'll likely have to pay the fine and a reinstatement fee before any state will issue you a new one.
And if thats the case, you probably don't want to be caught driving in the meantime -
I went online and it said 90 days, so I'm confused
