2 Answers
Motorcycles: The application age for D and E licenses is 18 to 60 years old; Passenger cars: The application age for C1, C2, and C5 licenses is 18 to 70 years old; Large trucks, heavy and medium-duty trucks: The application age for B2 licenses is 20 to 50 years old; Tractor-trailers: The application age for A2 licenses is 24 to 50 years old, and requires at least three years of driving experience with a B1 or B2 license. Below is relevant information: 1. Driver's license: The full name of a driver's license is a motor vehicle driving license, also known as a "driver's license," which is a certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills, and those lacking such skills may cause traffic accidents if they drive recklessly. Generally, individuals cannot drive on the road without a license. 2. Notes: A medical examination certificate is required to apply for a driver's license, and those who fail to meet the physical health standards will not be issued a motor vehicle driving license.
As a recent high school graduate, I'm currently preparing for my driver's license test. The new regulations state that small vehicle licenses like C1 can be obtained from age 18, with no major changes, but emphasize stricter physical examinations, such as more rigorous vision tests. This excites me because it means I can drive independently to school, but my driving instructor reminds beginners to start with basic courses and not rush onto the roads. The policy design considers young drivers' lack of experience by increasing practical driving hours to reduce risks. I think this is great as it helps new drivers safely transition to real-road driving. I've also heard about minor adjustments in different provinces, like additional time-limited learning requirements in big cities, so it's best to consult local authorities in advance. In short, age is just the starting point; developing safe driving habits is most important—don't cut corners just to save time.
