In general, a K restriction on a driver's license indicates that the driver is only allowed to operate commercial vehicles within the state that issued the license. This restriction is often used to ensure that drivers of commercial vehicles are familiar with the laws and regulations of the state in which they are operating.
However, some states may have reciprocity agreements with other states that allow drivers with a K restriction to operate non-CDL commercial vehicles in those states. For example, a driver with a K restriction on their license issued by the state of California may be able to operate a non-CDL commercial vehicle in the state of Arizona, which has a reciprocity agreement with California.
It is important to note that the specific requirements and restrictions for operating commercial vehicles out of state with a K restriction can vary significantly from state to state. Therefore, it is important to research the specific regulations for the state you are traveling to before operating a non-CDL commercial vehicle.
