Re: towing with out a towing license?

there is no such thing as a towing license. there is a class D which is the basic license everyone has can drive anything up to 26,000lbs. then there is a class B which you need to operate any single unit over 26,000lbs. Then a class A license which you need to operate any vehicle over 26,000lbs with a trailer. So If youre towing with a Flatbed your just need a class D because the flatbed cant handle enough to put you over the 26,000lbs. If your towing with a wrecker that also wont put you over the weight because they cant handle that much so youre good unless you are towing with a medium duty or heavy duty truck which I am sure youre not based on what you wrote.

EDIT: with the class A, B you also need either one of those if your truck has air brakes.
