Client Review by Trucker Injured in 3 Semi CrashThis table shows how Missouri labels or categorizes the many kinds of commercial vehicles. All of these are, in the end, vehicles for hire and all are regulated by the State of Missouri. The largest number of commercial motor vehicles belongs to the “truck tractor with one unit” group, the typical big rig with a semi hauling a single forty foot long trailer. The next largest number comes from a conventional semi or tractor hauling two trailers. The rest of the truck categories are a variation on a theme, with limousines and buses included. Note, though, that limousines and buses require a different kind of driver’s license, one that is much easier to get than a CDL or commercial drivers license, which allows a driver to haul freight.
