illinois license types
Illinois driver's license classifications are Class A, B, C D, L and M, based on the weight and number of wheels of the vehicles. It also depends on whether the driver will be hauling hazardous materials or towing trailers. Commercial driver's licenses in Illinois are Class A, B, C, or some combination, in accordance with Federal CDL guidelines. A CDL is usually required for school bus, child care vehicle and commuter vehicle permits and for vehicles transporting members of a religious or senior citizen community.
