License....?
Topic 14621 | Page 1
After searching MO dmv I think I found my answer and hope it applies to commercial as well........
Pass the written permit test and driving tests. The DOR will waive your skills and written tests if your driver's license is valid or has been expired for 184 days or less.
Have a great day all!!

Hello all, Lorie here. My question is, Family and I have decided trucking is the way to go and have narrowed down to Prime.
My ? Is I live in Indiana and the school is in missouri. I now carry class B and drive a school bus. From reading on here I have learnt I can't take combination here and get the permit and take it to Missouri.
So do you all know if I go to Missouri and already have the class b. Does a person have to take the cdl general knowledge , airbrakes ect. In Missouri all over again? Or just the combination, tanker and any other endorsements I will need?
Any help would be appreciated. I'm constantly checking in and testing on this site. Thank you all.
