• The Commercial Driver's License is required for individuals who intend to drive vehicles used for commercial purposes, such as trucks, buses, taxis, and other vehicles designed to transport goods or passengers for payment.
• This license is essential for professional drivers engaged in activities such as long-haul trucking, public transportation, freight delivery, and other commercial driving services.

Please explain what are other uses of obtaining this document/certificate.
