Which of the following is a type of vehicle that someone with a Class D license cannot drive?

Single unit vehicles under 26,000 lbs
Farm trucks transporting goods
Vehicles designed to carry hazardous materials
Neighborhood electric vehicles

The correct answer is: Vehicles designed to carry hazardous materials

A Class D license in Minnesota allows an individual to operate standard passenger vehicles and light trucks that do not exceed a weight of 26,000 pounds. However, certain vehicles are restricted from operation with this type of license. Vehicles designed to carry hazardous materials fall into a category that requires special handling and knowledge due to the potential dangers associated with hazardous materials. Regulations are in place that necessitate a specific endorsement to operate such vehicles, often requiring more intensive training and testing to ensure the driver is knowledgeable about the handling and transportation of those materials. In contrast, single unit vehicles under 26,000 lbs, farm trucks transporting goods, and neighborhood electric vehicles can all be operated with a Class D license, as they do not typically pose the same level of risk or regulatory requirement as vehicles that transport hazardous materials. This distinction underscores the importance of obtaining the appropriate licenses and endorsements for driving specialized vehicles to ensure safety and compliance with transportation laws.
