WHAT IS CONSIDERED A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE IN LOUISIANA?
Commercial vehicles in Louisiana cover a wide range of vehicles and are used for work purposes and to transport goods or passengers. Vehicles owned or leased by a business, or a private vehicle used for work purposes, are considered commercial.

- Dump trucks, tour buses, public transportation buses, and private business buses.
- Tractor-trailers hauling heavy equipment or materials, such as vehicles, heavy machinery, construction materials, and more.
- Delivery vans, moving trucks, extended cab trucks, and box trucks.
