When I just got my new driver's license, I carefully studied the permitted driving scope. Driver's license types are mainly categorized by letters: A C-class license allows driving small cars and small automatic transmission vehicles, like our family sedans; A B-class license permits driving medium-sized buses, such as those used for kindergarten school buses; An A-class license is the most powerful, allowing driving large vehicles like city buses and coaches. D/E-class licenses are specifically for motorcycles, but high-displacement three-wheeled motorcycles require a D-class license. The newly introduced C6-class license is for trailer RVs, with special attention needed to ensure the towing vehicle meets standards. Trucks are divided into light, medium, and heavy-duty, and driving semi-trailers requires a separate A2 license test. Actually, there's a detailed list on the back of the driver's license. It's best to determine what type of vehicle you want to drive before choosing a driving school.
