What kind of license do you need to drive a limousine in NY?

In New York, you need a Class CDL (Commercial Driver's License) to drive a limousine. This is because limousines are considered "vehicles used to transport people for hire" and are therefore classified as commercial vehicles.

To get a Class CDL, you will need to:

- Be at least 21 years old

- Have a valid New York State driver's license

- Pass a physical examination

- Pass a written test on CDL knowledge and skills

- Pass a road test

Once you have obtained your Class CDL, you can legally operate a limousine in New York State.
