What does a C1E driver's license mean?
1 Answers
C1E indicates that the holder is permitted to drive both C1 category vehicles and motorcycles. The license holder originally possesses a C1 driver's license, which does not authorize motorcycle operation. Under the conditions permitted by laws, regulations, and age requirements, one can apply to upgrade to an E license, thereby obtaining permission to ride motorcycles on public roads. Upon passing the required tests, the permitted vehicle categories on the driver's license will be updated to "C1E". Below are the advantages and disadvantages of a C1E driver's license: 1. Advantages: Only one driver's license is needed to operate two different types of vehicles, and the annual review or renewal of the license can be completed in one go, offering significant convenience. For the vehicle management office staff, merging two records into one facilitates better management. 2. Disadvantages: After the licenses are merged, the total points remain at 12. Whether violating traffic rules while driving a small car or riding a motorcycle, the penalty points will be deducted from these 12 points. If a motorcycle violation results in more than 12 points being deducted, the highest permitted driving category qualification will be revoked first, meaning the C1 license will be suspended.
