Can an A3 driver's license be upgraded to an A1?
1 Answers
An A3 driver's license can be upgraded to an A1, provided that the driver already holds an A3, B1, or B2 license and meets certain conditions. The A1 license is a large bus driver's license, which also allows the holder to drive vehicles covered by A3, B1, and B2 licenses. Therefore, the A1 license covers the widest range of vehicle types and can only be obtained through upgrading. The following conditions must be met to upgrade to an A1 license: the driver must have held the A3 license for at least 5 years, and must not have accumulated 12 or more penalty points in the current scoring cycle or in any of the previous 5 consecutive scoring cycles before applying for the upgrade.
