(3) The department may waive the actual demonstration required under ORS 807.070 (Examinations) for a person who is applying for a commercial driver license or for an endorsement related to a commercial driver license if the person submits to the department a certificate of competency issued under ORS 807.080 (Driver competency testing certificates) for the class of license or for the endorsement sought or under other circumstances, established by the department by rule, that establish the person’s ability to drive without an actual demonstration.
(4) The department may issue a Class A farm endorsement without requiring additional tests to a person who has a Class C driver license if a farm employer or a self-employed farmer certifies to the department that the person is experienced in driving a vehicle that may be driven only by persons who have a Class A commercial driver license and the person’s two-part driving record does not show either a traffic accident within two years of the date of application for the endorsement or a conviction for one of the following traffic crimes within five years of the date of application for the endorsement:
(5) The department may issue a Class B farm endorsement without requiring additional tests to a person who has a Class C driver license if a farm employer or a self-employed farmer certifies to the department that the person is experienced in driving a vehicle that may be driven only by persons who have a Class B commercial driver license and the person’s two-part driving record does not show either a conviction for a traffic crime specified in subsection (4) of this section within five years of the date of application for the endorsement or a traffic accident within two years of the date of application for the endorsement.
(6) The department by rule may establish other circumstances under which a farm endorsement may be issued without an actual demonstration.
