To drive a large truck, a B2 driver's license is required. The B2 license permits the operation of heavy-duty, medium-duty trucks or large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles, with heavy-duty and medium-duty trucks mainly referring to cargo trucks. Cargo trucks can be categorized into four types: heavy-duty, medium-duty, light-duty, and mini. Additional information: 1. Heavy-duty and medium-duty cargo trucks are issued large truck license plates (commonly known as yellow plates): Trucks with a length of 6 meters or more and a total mass of 12,000 kg or more are classified as heavy-duty cargo trucks; trucks with a length of 6 meters or more and a total mass of 4,500 kg or more but less than 12,000 kg are classified as medium-duty cargo trucks. 2. Light-duty and mini cargo trucks are issued small truck license plates (commonly known as blue plates): Trucks with a length of less than 6 meters and a total mass of less than 4,500 kg are classified as light-duty cargo trucks; trucks with a length of 3.5 meters or less and a load capacity of 750 kg or less are classified as mini cargo trucks. 3. Foreign-invested vehicle license plates (commonly known as black plates): All trucks owned by foreign-invested enterprises, regardless of type, are issued foreign-invested vehicle license plates (commonly known as black plates). The relevant department of the Municipal Public Security Bureau Traffic Police Bureau requires registered cargo truck owners and drivers to conscientiously comply with the above regulations and traffic laws, drive in accordance with the rules, and ensure safe driving.
