1 Answers
C driver's license is a type of driver's license that was issued before May 2004. After May 2004, according to the "Road Traffic Safety Law" (implemented on May 1, 2004) and its supporting policies, the old Class C licenses held by drivers were automatically converted to B1 licenses (B1 driver's license) in the driver's license database of the municipal vehicle management office. More details about the driver's license are as follows: 1. Different names for permitted vehicle types: The old Class C license was called "small car," commonly known as "small passenger car license," while the B1 license is called "medium-sized passenger car." 2. Different age requirements: For the application age, the old Class C license only required the applicant to be at least 18 years old, while the B1 license requires the applicant to be at least 21 years old. Those who reach 60 years old must exchange their B1 license for a C1 or C2 license at the vehicle management office. 3. B1 license cannot be obtained for the first time: The old Class C license and the current series of new Class C licenses can be obtained for the first time, while the B1 license can only be applied for after holding a new Class C license for at least 3 years.
