At what age is a large vehicle license downgraded?

[ZoeyLynn]

Large vehicle license downgrade occurs at the age of 60. Large vehicle license: According to Article 59 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses', holders of large passenger vehicle, tractor, city bus, medium-sized passenger vehicle, or large truck driving licenses who are 60 years of age or older must downgrade to a small car or small automatic transmission vehicle driving license. Those aged 60 or above are prohibited from driving large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, trolleybuses, and trams. Precautions: When starting, the coordination of clutch, throttle, and handbrake must be precise, especially the timing of releasing the handbrake. For uphill starts, hold the clutch engagement point slightly longer and apply slightly more throttle. However, an advantage of large vehicles is that starting in first gear provides more power than small cars, making it easier to start. When driving heavy trucks, it's essential to understand their characteristics: heavy trucks have greater mass and inertia; higher center of gravity and greater centrifugal force. The long body occupies more space. The long wheelbase results in significant inner wheel difference. Air brakes provide faster braking response. The steering wheel is larger and responds slower compared to small cars. There are more gears (six or more) with smaller gear gaps, making the operation more complex and demanding than driving small cars.
