    Whats a Q restriction in New Jersey?
    I don't need one, I just read a job posting that required it and I did not find any information on it anywhere.
    Just being curious!:biggrin_25520:

    I looked all over and I can't find anything. In NY it appears that it means you can only drive a vehicle with power steering. I just renewed my Nevada CDL and it has a "J" restriction. That's a new one that means I have to have a valid DOT physical card.

    Q Restriction

    This is the “Commercial Motor Vehicle Inspection Only” restriction. This restriction applies to a Commercial Driver’s License only. It is applied to CDL licenses when the driver only holds the CDL for Vehicle Inspection purposes, and does not intend to operate a CDL-required Commercial Motor Vehicle on public roadways. This restriction is maintained by Vehicle Safety & Inspection Services.
    This restriction will display on a license as: CDL – CMV Vehicle Inspection Only.

    Notice that this is from Massatwoschidts. Couldn't find anything about it in searching Jersey. It may or may not apply.

    This is odd! Aside from my normal endorsements, Tanker, doubles-triples and hazmat,My New York license say Passenger Adult Seating 7.
    I don't even recall taking the passenger endorsement.
    This Q thing is whacked!
