B2 driver's license requires an annual review and inspection. As long as there are demerit point records, traffic safety education must be attended. The following is an introduction to relevant knowledge about A, B, and C licenses: 1. A license: Applicants aged 26 or above can apply for a large passenger vehicle license (A1); those aged 24 or above can apply for a heavy or medium-sized full trailer or semi-trailer combination vehicle license (A2); those aged 21 or above can apply for an urban bus license with a capacity of 10 or more passengers (A3). 2. B license: Applicants aged 24 or above can apply for a heavy or medium-sized full trailer or semi-trailer combination vehicle license (A2); those aged 21 or above can apply for a medium passenger vehicle license (B1) or a heavy/medium truck, large/heavy/medium special purpose vehicle license (B2). 3. C license: Applicants aged 21 or above can apply for a medium passenger vehicle license (B1), or apply for a small/mini passenger vehicle and light/mini truck, light/small/mini special purpose vehicle license (C1); or apply for a small/mini automatic transmission passenger vehicle and light/mini automatic transmission truck license (C2).

I've been driving trucks for over a decade, and here's how the B-class license demerit system works: accumulating 12 points requires taking an exam, which is usually the theoretical test (Subject 1). The scoring cycle is one year, meaning if you reach 12 points within a year, you must report to the traffic police department, attend 7 days of safety education, and then take a written test. I've seen truck driver friends go through the re-examination process after maxing out their points - it's quite troublesome. Failing the exam could even result in a downgrade of your license. So when driving heavy vehicles, it's crucial to strictly follow traffic rules: no speeding, no illegal lane changes, and regularly check your point status on the Traffic Management 12123 app. Safety first is always the right approach.

When guiding beginners to learn to drive large vehicles, I repeatedly emphasize the importance of point management. Once a Class B driver's license accumulates 12 points, the driver is required to take a traffic safety exam—that is, a written test reviewing traffic regulations. The entire process takes about a week of study, affecting work efficiency. I recommend using a navigation app to set speed limit reminders while driving to avoid scenarios that easily lead to point deductions, such as running red lights or fatigued driving. One careless mistake and the points can max out, so it's better to develop good habits over time for peace of mind.

I recently obtained my B license to drive minibuses, and my instructor reminded me that accumulating 12 penalty points would require retaking the theoretical exam. The test covers traffic rules and accident handling, which takes considerable time to prepare for. Within a year, I need to be extra careful to avoid receiving tickets, as each instance of speeding or using the phone while driving adds penalty points. Safe driving isn’t just about saving money on exams—it’s also about ensuring passenger safety.
