Can an A2 License Drive a 19-Seat Coaster?

[SanAyla]

An A2 license can drive a 19-seat Coaster. The basis for an A2 license to drive such a vehicle: Holders of an A2 license can drive tractor semi-trailers, B1 (medium-sized buses), and B2 (large trucks). An A2 license allows driving medium-sized buses with a total length of less than 6 meters and seating for 19 or fewer passengers. It does not permit driving buses with a total length exceeding 6 meters; buses longer than 6 meters require an A1 license. Suitable vehicle types for an A2 license: An A2 license is primarily for tractor vehicles but also covers the vehicle types permitted under B1 and B2 licenses. Therefore, the types of buses an A2 license can drive are those that meet the B1 criteria. B1 permits driving passenger vehicles with a length of less than 6 meters and seating for fewer than 20 people. In other words, an A2 license can only drive buses that are less than 6 meters long and seat fewer than 20 passengers. Buses exceeding 6 meters in length or seating more than 20 passengers require an A1 license. A typical medium-sized bus that an A2 license can drive is the Toyota Coaster, which comes in models ranging from 10 to 23 seats, with the 19-seat version being the most common.
