B1 driver's license cannot be directly applied for; it can only be obtained through an upgrade. The application conditions are as follows: 1. Before upgrading to a B1 driver's license, you must have held a driving qualification for urban buses, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed trucks, or three-wheeled vehicles for at least three years; or have held a qualification for large trucks for at least two years. Additionally, you must not have accumulated 12 penalty points in any of the last three scoring cycles before the application. 2. The applicant's age must be between 21 and 60 years old. 3. Furthermore, those who have caused a fatal traffic accident with primary or full responsibility, have a record of drunk driving, or have a record of speeding over 50% are not eligible to apply for a B1 upgrade. 4. After meeting all the corresponding conditions, you can apply at the vehicle management office. 5. Following a series of reviews, including a medical examination, you will begin theoretical and practical training at a designated driving school. 6. The B1 driver's license test consists of three parts: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 is a test on traffic and road regulations, similar to Subject 1 for a C1 driver's license; Subject 2 is a skills test on a closed course, equivalent to Subject 2 for a C1 driver's license; Subject 3 is a road test, just like Subject 3 for a C1 driver's license.
I've passed the B1 driver's license test, let me share the application requirements: you must be at least 18 years old, being too young doesn't meet the criteria. You need to pass a physical examination with qualified vision, such as corrected visual acuity of 0.8 or above, and no epilepsy or color blindness issues. An ID card is mandatory, bring the original to the driving school for registration. The learning process requires attending formal driving school training, covering written tests on traffic rules and practical road exercises. The exam is divided into two parts: first pass the theory test, then the road test, and you can only get the license after passing both. Budget several thousand yuan for the fees, practice reversing and emergency braking techniques more during training, and pay attention to safety details. Don't rush, systematic training for two to three months is the most reliable.
As someone who has been through the process, the main requirements for obtaining a B1 driver's license are: the minimum age is 18 years old, passing the health examination is mandatory, including vision, hearing, and hand mobility. A valid personal ID is essential, and I recommend registering for training at a reputable driving school. During the training period, you must learn traffic regulations and driving skills. The test consists of a theoretical exam (Subject 1) and practical assessments (Subjects 2 and 3). Remember to bring photos for the license application, and don't slack off during the process—practice gear shifting and obstacle avoidance diligently. Regular health check-ups after obtaining the license are also crucial.
