1 Answers
B1 driver's license can operate trucks with a total mass of 4.5 tons and an approved load capacity of 1.5 tons. The relevant details are as follows: 1. Driving condition restrictions: The permitted vehicle types for B1 do not include those for B2. A B1 license only allows driving light and mini trucks with a total length not exceeding 6 meters, a total mass below 4500kg (including 4500kg), and an approved load capacity below 1500KG. 2. Permitted vehicles include: The B1 driver's license covers vehicle types permitted by C1, C2, C3, C4, and M licenses. The permitted vehicle types include medium-sized buses (including urban buses with a capacity of 10 to 19 passengers), small and mini passenger vehicles (with a capacity of 9 passengers or fewer), low-speed trucks, three-wheeled vehicles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, and light, small, and mini special-purpose vehicles. 3. Conditions for upgrading: To upgrade to a B1 license, the applicant must have held a C1 license for more than three years, be aged between 21 and 25, and have no record of a full score (12 points) in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before application. Only then can they apply for an upgrade at the vehicle management office in their registered residence.
