Can a C2 License Holder Drive a Motorcycle?
2 Answers
C2 license holders cannot drive motorcycles. Operating a motorcycle on the road requires a specialized motorcycle driver's license. Classification of Motorcycles: According to regulations, there are three categories of motorcycle licenses, each with its corresponding code. The codes are F for light motorcycles, E for regular two-wheeled motorcycles, and D for regular three-wheeled motorcycles. Hierarchy of Motorcycle Licenses: Among motorcycle licenses, the D license is the highest level. In addition to authorizing the operation of three-wheeled motorcycles, it also permits driving all vehicle types allowed by E and F licenses. The E license is the second highest, authorizing the operation of all vehicle types permitted by the F license.
I've been driving for many years and know that a C2 license is specifically for automatic transmission cars—you can drive sedans, SUVs, and the like, but motorcycles are absolutely off-limits. Riding a motorcycle is a whole different ball game; you need a specialized D or E license. Driving a motorcycle with a C2? That’s unlicensed driving! If caught by traffic police, you could face fines, points deducted, or even have your license revoked—or worse, end up in jail. A neighbor in my community rode a bike without a license and wrecked his arm in an accident. If you really want to ride a motorcycle, sign up at a driving school properly: first, study safety theory, then practice turning and parking, and pass the test—it’s straightforward. Costs around a thousand bucks, and after training, you’ll need proper gear like a helmet and knee pads. Driving a car is convenient and relaxed, while riding a bike is thrilling but risky—never mix them up. Safety first, right?
