If I move to North Dakota, how many days do I have before my out-of-state CDL is deemed invalid?

You have 30 days to apply for a North Dakota CDL. If you don't, your out-of-state CDL will be considered illegal.

Are there CDL exemptions for North Dakota farmers driving farm equipment?

Yes, and they are:

• Any farmer driving a two-axle, tandem axle, or truck-tractor farm vehicle for the purpose of moving farm machinery, produce or farm supplies within 150 miles of his or her farm does not need a CDL.

• Any farmer transporting hazardous material within 150 miles of his farm does not need a hazardous material endorsement.

With the allowed hours of service always changing how can I keep pace with what's legal?

Call the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration at (701)-250-4346.

How often do I need to get a medical examination?

You are required by law to be examined every 24 months.
