What is a C1D driver's license and how to obtain it?
2 Answers
C1D is a combined driver's license for motor vehicles and motorcycles, which adds the motorcycle driving category to the motor vehicle driver's license. The C1D driver's license cannot be obtained directly. You need to pass the C1 driver's license test first and then add the D driver's license. You can apply for the D license if you have held the C1 driver's license for more than one year and have not accumulated 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before application. Classification of driver's licenses: Motor vehicle driver's licenses are divided into 16 categories: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, D, E, F, M, N, P. C1 driver's license: The C1 driver's license is one of the codes for motor vehicle driver's licenses. The driving scope of the C1 driver's license includes small and mini passenger cars, light and mini cargo trucks; light, small, and mini special operation vehicles; and small passenger cars with a seating capacity of 9 or fewer people.
C1D might be a misunderstanding, friends. In China's driver's license system, there are actually two separate categories: C1 and D. C1 refers to a small car license that allows you to drive small cars and light trucks, while D is a three-wheeled motorcycle license that permits you to ride three-wheeled motorcycles. To obtain these licenses, you need to take the tests separately. I recently got my C1 license, and the process was quite straightforward: first, you must be at least 18 years old and pass a health check. Then, you register at a driving school, pay the tuition fees, and start learning theoretical knowledge. Next, you take the written test for Subject 1. After passing, you practice field driving skills like reverse parking for Subject 2, followed by road testing for Subject 3. Finally, there's a safety and civilized driving test for Subject 4. The whole process takes about three to four months and costs around four to five thousand yuan. The motorcycle D license test is similar but requires better balance skills. Taking both tests together can save time, but remember to practice more and prioritize road safety—this way, driving for travel becomes both convenient and exciting. Common issues like failing the theory test can be resolved by practicing more questions and staying calm during the test.
