Here is my question i recently bought a 20k gooseneck trailer and when hooked to my dodge dually which has a gvwr of 11,000 lb i would legally have to have a cdl to haul my pulling truck but if i was to buy a 14k trailer i would not need one if i am reading this right. here is ohio laws on a cdl. I understand 1 but 2 is not clear to me. Do they go on what your hauling or what it can actually haul

You need a CDL if you operate any of the following vehicles:
1.Any combination of vehicles with a combined gross vehicle weight rating of twenty-six thousand one pounds or more, provided the gross vehicle weight rating of the vehicle or vehicles being towed is in excess of ten thousand pounds;
2.Any single vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating of twenty-six thousand one pounds or more, or any such vehicle towing a vehicle having a gross vehicle weight rating that is not in excess of ten thousand pounds;
3.Any single vehicle or combination of vehicles that is not a class A or class B vehicle, but that either is designed to transport sixteen or more passengers including the driver;
4.Any school bus with a gross vehicle weight rating of less than twenty-six thousand one pounds that is designed to transport fewer than sixteen passengers including the driver;
5.Is transporting hazardous materials for which placarding is required under subpart F of 49 C.F.R. part 172;
6.Any single vehicle or combination of vehicles that is designed to be operated and to travel on a public street or highway and is considered by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to be a commercial motor vehicle, including, but not limited to, a motorized crane, a vehicle whose function is to pump cement, a rig for drilling wells, and a portable crane.
