I had a C license and drove small cars for several years, and now I want to upgrade to a B2 license to drive heavy trucks. I looked into the requirements. You must be at least 21 years old, have held the C license for more than two years, have no more than 12 penalty points, and maintain a clean record. Then, you need to register at the local vehicle management office or driving school and pass a physical examination, ensuring your vision meets the standards and you have no health issues. The test consists of a theoretical part and a practical part. The theory test covers rules for large vehicles, while the practical test requires practicing skills like reversing into a bay and navigating turns to control the large vehicle. Once you pass, you can get the license. However, driving a heavy truck comes with greater responsibility, so safety must always come first. Regular practice is essential to maintain control and prevent accidents.
To upgrade from a C license to a B2 license, the key requirements are being at least 21 years old and holding the C license for at least two years without any serious traffic violations that result in the deduction of all points. Additionally, a physical examination is required to ensure the driver is physically fit to operate large vehicles. The examination process includes a theoretical test on truck knowledge and a practical test consisting of yard driving and road driving to assess stability. The entire process emphasizes the operational skills and safety awareness needed for large vehicles. Upon passing, the driver is legally permitted to operate freight trucks.
