Seasonal Agriculture CDL Modernization Act

This bill directs the Secretary of Transportation to change federal rules for restricted commercial driver's licenses used by farm-related service industries. Within 1 year, the rules must allow each state to create an online system for registering and renewing seasonal restricted licenses, as long as applicants meet the program's other terms. Also within 1 year, the rules must state that implements of husbandry, meaning vehicles or equipment designed or adapted only for farm work, are not commercial motor vehicles. Such equipment would also not count toward gross combination weight calculations.
