Is there any standard driver's license terminology in all states?

Here in California, the DMV website talks about Class A, B, C, and M
licenses.

Class A & B are commercial licenses, even though it looks like theu
yse the same test. Is this standard language? I checked a few other
states and they don't seem to use those classifications. Most just say
"commercial" (CDL).

Class C is for a "regular" driver's license. Is this standard
terminology?

Class M is for motorcycles. California talks about a Class M1 and M2
license. The M2 looks to be for smaller biles like mopeds, but that
use the same test for both.

If there is a better place to post this, please advise.

I think you just answered your own question...

Nope. Sucks, doesn't it? Now you'll have to do a lot more work before
you can start advertising your forged driver's licenses that "Look just like
the real ones! Good in all States!!!" in the back pages of Terrorist Weekly.

Whoa. Been watching a little too much late night TV, have you? Here's
a tip: if the show has advertisers that are pushing male enhancement
products, you might want to take the "facts" in the show itself with a
grain of salt. Now you didn't order any of those creams, did you...?

Nope. Been saving all my money to learn how to fly. You know of any
commercial airline schools that accept cash for lessons, no questions asked?

There are national standards and classifications for commercial
drivers licenses.  To the best of my knowlege there are none for
individual licenses.
May I ask why you are asking?

Thanks.

Is there anh standard term for "regular" licences? The California DMV
calls them "Class C", licenses, but I didn't see that term in other
states.

>May I ask why you are asking?

Sure. I'm writing an electronic flashcard program. I would like to
enter test questions from all 50 states for the various types of
licensing exams. I was looking for the proper terminology to use.

How about "Passenger", "Commercial", and "Motorcycle"?
