What’s in it
AI summary Counties cannot hire or contract someone to drive a motor grader on secondary roads unless that person has at least five years of experience. If they have less experience, they must complete a training program that includes classroom lessons and hands-on practice behind the wheel. This training covers how to design road profiles, use proper grading techniques, and maintain roads and shoulders.1
Read the official explanation

Motor grader operator training must include training in a classroom setting focusing on ideal roadway profile designs and application, proper grading techniques, and standard roadway and shoulder maintenance methods. Motor grader operator training must also include training behind the wheel of a motor grader substantially similar to the motor grader the person will use during the person’s employment.
