In what type of vehicle? A vehicle requiring a CDL requires one on any public roadway, from the Interstate to a rural backroad. In the instance of trucks which would otherwise require a CDL, the farm truck exemption applies, so long as the following conditions are met:

  • Vehicle is registered as a farm vehicle, and not a commercial truck
  • It is operated only for the purposes of that farm, and not as a third party or on any for-hire basis.
  • It is operated by the farmer, immediate family members of the farmer, or direct (W2) employees of the farmer.
  • It is operated within a 150 road miles/100 air mile radius of the farm.

Can you drive a semi tractor without a CDL?

Only in very limited circumstances. If it's a for-hire vehicle, then no. If it's a registered farm vehicle, and you are either the farmer, immediate family of the farmer, or a direct employee of the farmer, and that vehicle is used on a not-for-hire basis solely in support of that farm's activities, and it is within a 150 mile radius of the farm, then you don't need a CDL to drive it, although states will have their own licencing requirements for vehicles of this class which are exempt from regulation by the FMCSA.


Is your cdl for intrastate or interstate?

If you're 21 or older, whether you drive interstate or intrastate, you ALWAYS self-identify as "interstate, non-exempted". Then, if you ever have to take a job where you do run interstate, you won't have to go back to the DMV just to change how you self-identify.
