Can a C2 driver's license drive a semi-automatic car?
1 Answers
C2 driver's license can drive a semi-automatic car because whether it is a semi-automatic car or a pure automatic car, they both use the structure of an automatic transmission. A semi-automatic transmission is also a type of automatic transmission, so a semi-automatic car belongs to the category of automatic cars, which is within the scope of the C2 driver's license. The vehicles allowed to be driven with a C2 driver's license include small and micro automatic passenger cars, as well as light and micro automatic cargo trucks. Like the C1 driver's license, it only allows driving automatic cars with fewer than 9 seats and a length not exceeding 6 meters. If a C2 driver's license holder drives a manual car, it will be treated as driving a vehicle that does not match the permitted vehicle type, which is essentially considered driving without a license. This will result in a one-time deduction of 12 points, a fine, and may also lead to detention for up to 15 days. If there is a need to drive manual cars, one can obtain a C1 driver's license by retaking the C1 license exams from subjects one to four. The difference between taking the C1 and C2 tests lies in the vehicle operation, while the difficulty of the exams and the grading standards are the same.
