Is annual review required for A2 driver's license if no points are deducted?
1 Answers
No annual review is required. According to Article 123 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" issued by the Ministry of Public Security, holders of Class A and Class B driver's licenses (including large buses, tractors, urban buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks) must undergo an annual review at the traffic management department of the public security authority within 30 days after the end of each scoring cycle. However, if there are no point deductions within a scoring cycle, the annual review for that cycle is exempted. Below is relevant information: 1. If an A2 driver's license has not incurred any point deductions during its validity period, the annual review and license renewal are only required three months before the license expires. There is no need to visit the vehicle management office for an annual review during this period. 2. The permitted vehicle types for an A2 license include tractors, which can tow heavy-duty and medium-duty full trailers/semi-trailers. Trailers are divided into two types: full trailers and semi-trailers. A full trailer bears its total weight independently, while a semi-trailer shares part of its total weight with the tractor. Only drivers holding an A2 license can operate such tractors; even those with an A1 license are not permitted to drive tractors. 3. Other vehicle types that an A2 license holder can drive include: B1 (medium-sized buses), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery).
