Allow all persons serving in the reserves to be eligible for certain CDL waiver

Complete·5/8/25

Montana HB708 allows all persons serving in the reserves to be eligible for certain CDL waiver.

Montana HB708 amends the state's commercial driver's license laws to allow all persons serving in a reserve component to be eligible for certain waivers. Specifically, it permits the waiver of skills and knowledge tests for commercial driver's licenses for current or former military service members who meet certain criteria, such as having operated a commercial motor vehicle within the last year and having no disqualifying convictions or accidents. This change aims to recognize the experience of reserve service members in operating commercial motor vehicles.
