C2 driver's license cannot be used to ride a motorcycle. A motorcycle driver's license is required to operate a motorcycle. Holders of a C2 driver's license are permitted to drive small and mini automatic passenger vehicles, as well as light and mini automatic cargo vehicles. Similar to the C1 license, it only allows driving automatic vehicles with no more than 9 seats and a length not exceeding 6 meters. In simple terms, a C2 license only permits driving small automatic vehicles and does not cover other types of vehicles. Motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles. According to regulations, operating a motor vehicle requires a valid driver's license (motorcycle license). Otherwise, it will be considered unlicensed driving, which may result in a fine of 200-2000 yuan, vehicle impoundment, and full liability in the event of a traffic accident. Motorcycle licenses are categorized into D, E, and F licenses, covering two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles. In addition to directly applying for an initial two-wheeled or three-wheeled motorcycle license, one can also apply for an additional two-wheeled or three-wheeled motorcycle license. Depending on the motorcycle's engine displacement, different types of licenses are required, as follows: D license: Ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, covering vehicles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h. E license: Ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, covering vehicles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h. F license: Light motorcycles.
