Should I choose C1 or C2 for a driver's license?

[VanEverett]

Most people generally opt for the C1 driver's license. Although C2 is much easier to learn compared to C1 because automatic transmission vehicles don't have a clutch, eliminating the need for frequent clutch pressing and gear shifting—only requiring control of speed with the brake and accelerator. However, a C1 license allows driving C2 and other manual transmission vehicles, whereas a C2 license only permits driving automatic transmission vehicles and excludes manual transmission ones. The differences between the two are as follows: 1. Different vehicle types allowed: A C1 license permits driving all vehicle types under C2, C3, and C4 categories. Additionally, C1 allows driving micro and small passenger cars, as well as light and micro cargo trucks, and light and micro operation vehicles. On the other hand, C2 does not permit driving operation vehicles, and for micro and small passenger or cargo vehicles, only automatic transmission cars are allowed, excluding C3 and C4 vehicles. 2. Difficulty of the driving test: The test items for C1 and C2 are the same, but in terms of difficulty, C2 with automatic transmission is simpler to operate than C1 due to the absence of a clutch.
