3 Answers
C2 driver's license can drive an automatic RV. The differences between C1 and C2 driver's licenses are as follows: 1. Concept: C1 driver's license refers to a manual transmission license, while C2 driver's license refers to an automatic transmission license. 2. Permitted vehicles: C1 driver's license allows driving small and micro passenger cars, light and micro trucks, and light, small, and micro special operation vehicles. C2 driver's license allows driving small and micro automatic passenger cars and light and micro automatic trucks. The main difference is that C1 can drive both manual and automatic vehicles, while C2 can only drive automatic vehicles. 3. Annual physical examination: C1 requires an annual physical examination for drivers aged 70 and above, whereas C2 requires an annual physical examination for drivers aged 60 and above.
Answer 1: As a veteran driver with decades of experience, I can tell you that a C2 license allows you to drive automatic transmission RVs, but it depends on the specific type. Small automatic transmission RVs, like those with blue license plates, typically weigh under 4.5 tons and are completely legal. I've driven such RVs for trips and found them quite easy to handle, especially with the convenience of automatic transmission. However, if the RV is too large or has a yellow license plate, exceeding 4.5 tons in weight, you'll need a C1 or even a B license. So, always check the vehicle's certification and manual before purchasing. For beginners, I recommend practicing parking and turning in open areas first, as RVs are more cumbersome than sedans—drive at moderate speeds for safety. Regular maintenance, including tire and brake checks, is also essential advice from experience.
Answer 2: Hey bros, a C2 license definitely allows you to drive automatic transmission RVs, as long as it's a small automatic model, like those blue-plate self-propelled ones – perfect for short trips. I've tried it several times during road trips, and automatic transmission makes driving way easier, especially when climbing hills in mountainous areas without needing to shift gears. Just remember not to go for oversized RVs; if the vehicle exceeds 6 meters in length or 4.5 tons in weight, you might break the law and get fined. Opt for a lightweight design when choosing, and regularly check the lights and AC system to avoid roadside embarrassments. Oh, and RVs have higher chassis and larger turning radiuses, so don't force your way into narrow city roads – look for bigger parking spots to play it safe.
