2 Answers
k2 driver's license is a driving permit for passenger vehicles with a length of less than 6 meters. The "Driving Permit" is divided into the following five types based on vehicle models: 1. K1 class: Passenger vehicles with a length of 6 meters or more. 2. K2 class: Passenger vehicles with a length of less than 6 meters. 3. H1 class: Freight vehicle trains. 4. H2 class: Ordinary freight vehicles. 5. H3 class: Other motor vehicles. Driving hazardous goods transport vehicles requires the word "Dangerous" to be noted on the corresponding H-class driving permit. The types of machinery that combine harvester drivers are permitted to drive are divided into: 1. Wheeled tractors, code-named G1. 2. Hand tractors, code-named K1. 3. Tracked tractors, code-named L. 4. Wheeled tractor transport units, code-named G2 (permitting the driving of wheeled tractors). 5. Hand tractor transport units, code-named K2 (permitting the driving of hand tractors). 6. Wheeled combine harvesters, code-named R. 7. Tracked combine harvesters, code-named S.
Speaking of the K2 driver's license, I just took the test last month in my hometown. It's specifically designed for four-wheel agricultural transport vehicles, such as tractors or small cargo trucks. Regular car licenses like C1 don't cover agricultural vehicles, which is why the K2 was created. The test consists of a theoretical part covering traffic rules and agricultural machinery knowledge, as well as a practical section, like maneuvering with a trailer. Applicants must be at least 18 years old and pass a medical exam to register. In rural areas, many people use it to transport crops or feed. Driving without this license can result in fines or even vehicle confiscation. It's managed by the agricultural machinery department, not the traffic police. I find it quite practical—the training is short, usually just a week or two, but safety is crucial. Agricultural vehicles are slow and prone to tipping over, so even after getting the license, you have to drive carefully.
