What Driver's License is Required to Drive a Medium-sized Passenger Vehicle?

[SanElijah]

Medium-sized ordinary passenger vehicles require a B1 or higher-level driver's license to operate. The standard for medium-sized passenger vehicles is that they do not exceed 6 meters in length and have a rated passenger capacity of 10 (inclusive) to 19 (inclusive) people. The requirements for obtaining a B1 driver's license are: the applicant must be between 21 and 50 years old; must have held a C1 driver's license for more than three years; and must not have any record of accumulating 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle or the most recent scoring cycle before applying for the B1 license upgrade. Regulations stipulate that the application for upgrading to a B1 driver's license can only be processed at the local vehicle management office in the driver's registered residence, not in other locations. Holders of a B1-level driver's license are permitted to drive not only the corresponding vehicle types but also C1 and M vehicle types. B1 license holders are required by regulation to undergo an annual review, which mainly involves education and a physical examination. However, if no penalty points are accumulated during the scoring cycle, the annual review for that year can be waived.
