What Kind of Driver's License is Required to Operate a Crane?

[Rochelle]

Driving a crane requires a B2 driver's license. Here are the specific details about the B2 driver's license: Permitted Vehicle Types: The B2 license allows the holder to operate medium and heavy-duty trucks or specialized operation vehicles. It also permits driving small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed trucks, three-wheeled vehicles, and wheeled self-propelled machinery. The B2 license does not permit driving passenger buses or tow trucks. Operating a tow truck requires an A2 license, while driving passenger buses requires a B1 license. If you wish to drive both passenger buses and trucks, you need to apply for a B1 or A2 license. Application Method: The B2 driver's license can be applied for when initially obtaining a driver's license or by upgrading from a lower-level license. In either case, you need to submit an application to the local vehicle management office in your registered residence, then undergo a physical examination, and attend a driving school for training and testing as required.
