Can a C2 Driver's License Drive an RV?
2 Answers
C2 driver's license can drive an RV, but it is limited to vehicles with 7 seats or fewer, blue license plates with white characters, and a body or total vehicle length under 6 meters. Below are the vehicle types permitted by other driver's licenses: 1. C1 driver's license: Small and micro passenger vehicles, as well as light and micro cargo vehicles; light and micro special-purpose vehicles. 2. D driver's license: Three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h. 3. B1 driver's license: Medium-sized passenger vehicles (including urban buses with a capacity of 10 to 19 people).
Let me start with my own driving experience. When I was getting my C2 driver's license, the instructor mentioned something about RVs. The C2 license is for automatic transmission compact cars, but driving an RV depends on the specific model. Like the time I tried driving a friend's small Class B RV—it was just over 5 meters long, could seat two or three people, and my C2 license was perfectly sufficient. From what I recall, as long as an RV is under 6 meters in length, not too heavy, and seats no more than 9 people, it's fine to drive with a C2 license. However, larger or trailer-type RVs usually require a B2 or higher license. Last time I went camping, I saw some people traveling easily with small RVs, but others got fined for driving oversized vehicles without realizing it—what a shame. Before you take an RV out, make sure to check its specifications to avoid trouble. Small RVs are great for family trips—safe and flexible.
