In Texas, there are two sets of drivers license classifications: commercial and non-commercial. The non-commercial drivers license classes are Class A, B, C, and M. The standard drivers license in Texas is the Class C license, which allows individuals to operate regular, non-commercial passenger cars and trucks that do not exceed a weight limit of 26,001 lbs.

The non-commercial Class A license allows individuals to operate vehicles that exceed 26,001 lbs with towed vehicles that exceed 10,000 lbs. The Class B license allows individuals to operate a single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 lbs or more, or a combination of vehicles with a GVWR of 26,001 lbs or more that is towing a vehicle with a GVWR that does not exceed 10,000 lbs or a farm trailer with a GVWR that does not exceed 20,000 lbs.

To apply for a non-commercial drivers license in Texas, individuals need to visit the local TX DMV and present a completed Application for Texas Drivers License or ID Card (Form DL-14A) and appropriate proof of ID. The class of a Texas drivers license is determined by the type of vehicle operated on a Texas roadway, the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle or the gross combination weight rating (GCWR) of the vehicles towed, and the number of passengers the vehicle can hold.
