With a Class C driver's license, which vehicle may a person legally drive?

A Class C driver's license allows a person to operate standard passenger vehicles, which includes vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of less than 26,001 pounds. The option that states a person may drive a 3-axle vehicle if the Gross Vehicle Weight is less than 6,000 pounds aligns with these regulations, as it specifies a weight that is within the permissible limit for a Class C license.

Driving a 3-axle vehicle that weighs 10,000 pounds exceeds the weight limit for a Class C license. A motorcycle falls under a different classification and typically requires a specific motorcycle endorsement on the driver's license. Similarly, a bus designed to transport 15 passengers or more generally requires a commercial driver’s license (CDL) because it is classified as a commercial vehicle. Hence, the correct choice effectively reflects the licensing requirements in place for operating vehicles within the designated weight and passenger limits.
