2 Answers
Penalties for driving a motorcycle with a C-class license: The traffic management department of the public security authority may impose a fine ranging from 200 to 2,000 yuan; revoke the motor vehicle driving license; and may also detain the driver for up to 15 days. If the type of motor vehicle driven exceeds the scope of the driving license, it will be treated as driving without a license. Driving without a license can be categorized into the following situations: 1. No driving license obtained: If a motor vehicle driver operates a motor vehicle without undergoing specialized driving skill training and examinations at a driver training school to obtain a motor vehicle driving license, it is considered driving without a license. 2. License type mismatch: If the driver does not carry a motor vehicle driving license that matches the type of vehicle being driven, it is considered driving without a license.
Last time I saw my friend get caught by the traffic police for riding a motorcycle with a C license, it was quite a scene. Not only was he directly deducted 9 points, but he was also fined 500 yuan, and his bike was towed away. My friend originally thought a C license could be used to ride a motorcycle, but the traffic police said it was a case of 'driving without the proper license class,' and in severe cases, he could even face 15 days of detention. Later, he quickly signed up to upgrade his license and obtained a D license to settle the matter. A reminder to everyone: you must have a D or E license to ride a motorcycle—a C license won’t cut it. Don’t take chances; getting caught just once can cost you dearly, especially now that traffic regulations are becoming stricter. Spending a little extra time to get a motorcycle license is much safer.
