Michigan still has "Chauffeur's" licenses? Which class of CDL is that
equivalent to?

For once in you life could you put away the measuring stick and just
accept another individual as an equal?

Here in Delaware, I'm told that Emergency Vehicle
operators don't require anything more than a standard Class D Driver's
license.

I.E., in Delaware they don't measure up to superior Larry.

They do, however, have to be a card-carrying member of
the "Emergency Service" (usually a local volunteer FD) to which
the emergency vehicle is registered.

With a shack on their hip, no doubt.

Brian:

I'm very sorry about your inferiority complex, but I was just asking for
some information from Ryan about driver's licenses. This is not about
my "superiority" or anything else that you should be whining about --
unless you are having problems of your own. Care to talk about it?

Just relax and enjoy the knowledge that there's another PPer in your
midsts.

I'd appreciate it if you PP'ers would use the restroom facilities instead of
doing it in our midst.

But PP'ers are so arrogant and superior minded that they think they can
PP wherever they want!

For all that matter, I can always pay someone to paralell park if I
absolutely had to!

True.... I can pay Sprint to provide my cell service too.... Or a different
angle, if you have a "monster truck" type of pickup, to hell with parallel
parking, just drive over/onto etc. your parking spot! HI HI

Should we form an official club, pay some dues, wear a ton of
patches/buttons etc.?? lol

Ryan:

All of the above! I propose that we also have Parallel Parking contests
and sponsor awards programs. A person who PP's 100 times would
get the basic Century Award; then 500 PP's would qualify you for the
Silver PP Award, then Gold, then Platinum, then Diamond, etc. etc.
Naturally, we'll have the official club with dues, a Board of Directors,
Officers, Executive Committee meetings, a web site, and an entire
range of Official PP Club Men's and Ladie's wear.

The MI Chauffers is one step down from the National CDL thingy as I believe
if I remember correctly it allows you to drive any vehicle 25,999Lbs and
under, as well as tow any trailer under that same weight. For passenger
vehicles, up to 15, otherwise that would require the CDL-C if memory serves
correctly. It also is the same license that covers a "driver for hire" from
anything from a pizza or other delivery person, limo driver etc. I had a
CDL a while back but have not elected to get it again.

Michigan has a specific class, which entails a 6 hour classroom
instruction, a skills driving course (1-2 hours depending on the course,
instructor etc.) and 8 hours driving with your chief to qualify for the
permit. As long as you pass the requirements for this, you can drive
emergency vehicles under emergency and non-emergency official department
business within the state of Michigan. Exception would be if you are
transporting the vehicle across state lines such as if your department were
buying a used pumper from another department in a different state, that
would require a CDL license.......

OK, that's pretty much what I expected. I was just surprised to hear
the term "Chauffeur's License" used again! Thanks for the info.
