How long does it take to upgrade from a C license to a B2 license?

[LaBeckett]

It takes more than three years. The following are the conditions for upgrading from C1 to B2: Hold a C1 small car driver's license for more than 3 years, with no full-point record in the last three consecutive scoring cycles, aged between 20 and 50 years old, no record of causing a fatal traffic accident with equal or greater responsibility; no record of drunk driving; and the driver's license has not been revoked or canceled within the past ten years. C1 is one of the driver's license classification codes. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), C1 refers to a driver's license that allows driving small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, as well as light and micro special-purpose vehicles. It also permits driving vehicles classified under C2, C3, and C4. A B2 driver's license allows driving heavy and medium-duty trucks or large, heavy, and medium-duty special-purpose vehicles. Heavy and medium-duty trucks are mainly trucks, such as the large trucks commonly seen on the road carrying construction waste, which belong to heavy-duty trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-duty special-purpose vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with special equipment or tools, such as sprinkler trucks, concrete mixer trucks, fire trucks, etc. Article 14 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" states that for first-time applicants of a motor vehicle driver's license, the following vehicle classifications can be applied for: city buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. For those who already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and wish to apply for an additional vehicle classification, the following can be applied for: large passenger vehicles, tractor-trailers, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. Article 15 states that for those who already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and wish to apply for an additional vehicle classification, there should be no record of accumulating 12 points in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before the application. For applications to add medium-sized passenger vehicles, tractor-trailers, or large passenger vehicles, the following additional conditions must be met: For adding medium-sized passenger vehicles, the applicant must have held a city bus, large truck, small car, small automatic transmission car, low-speed cargo vehicle, or three-wheeled car driver's license for more than three years, with no full-point record in the last three consecutive scoring cycles before the application. For adding tractor-trailers, the applicant must have held a medium-sized passenger vehicle or large truck driver's license for more than three years, or a large passenger vehicle driver's license for more than one year, with no full-point record in the last three consecutive scoring cycles before the application. For adding large passenger vehicles, the applicant must have held a city bus, medium-sized passenger vehicle, or large truck driver's license for more than five years, or a tractor-trailer driver's license for more than two years, with no full-point record in the last five consecutive scoring cycles before the application. Full-time driving vocational education students who have obtained a small car driver's license at school, with no full-point record in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before the application, can apply to add large passenger vehicles or tractor-trailers.
