Texas Class B Exempt License Practice Test

The key point here is the weight limit tied to a Class B Exempt license. A straight truck is a single, non-trailer vehicle. With a Class B Exempt license, you’re allowed to drive that kind of vehicle as long as its gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) does not exceed 26,000 pounds. If the vehicle weighs more than 26,000 pounds, you’d need a full Class B license (or higher) to operate it legally. It’s not about the vehicle being a bus or about special training—it’s about staying at or below that 26,000-pound threshold for the exemption.
