provided the GVWR of the vehicle(s) being towed is in excess of 10,000
pounds.

Class B -- Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any
such vehicle towing a vehicle not in excess of 10,000 pounds GVWR.

Class C -- Any single vehicle, or combination of vehicles, that does not

hazardous materials.
