Can a B1 Driver's License Drive a 7-meter 10-seater Vehicle?
1 Answers
A B1 driver's license cannot drive a 7-meter 10-seater vehicle. Below are the relevant details about the B1 driver's license: Introduction: The permitted vehicle types for a B1 license are medium-sized buses, defined as those not exceeding 6 meters in length, with a rated passenger capacity of 10 (inclusive) to 19 (inclusive) people. Other permitted vehicle types include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). It is important to note that the B1 license does not include B2 among its permitted vehicle types. If a holder of a B1 license wishes to drive large trucks, they can upgrade their license to a B1B2 (or A1, A2, A1A2, etc.). Conditions for upgrading to B1: The applicant must have held a (C1) license for at least three years, be between 21 and 50 years old, and have no record of a full score (12 points) in the current scoring cycle (this year) and the most recent scoring cycle (last year). They can then apply for the upgrade at the vehicle management office in their registered residence, as regulations stipulate that the upgrade to (B1) can only be processed at the vehicle management office in the driver's registered residence, not in temporary residence locations.
