What License is Required for Driving Large Vehicles?
1 Answers
Driving large vehicles only requires a B2 license. Precise coordination of clutch, handbrake, and accelerator during startup: During startup, the coordination of the clutch, accelerator, and handbrake must be precise, especially the timing of releasing the handbrake. For uphill starts, hold the clutch engagement point a bit longer and apply slightly more throttle. However, the advantage of large vehicles is that their first gear provides more power than small cars, making startup easier. Shift gears promptly: Shifting gears should be done promptly without dragging the gear, especially when going uphill—downshift in advance to ensure sufficient power reserve. Additionally, use double-clutching for gear shifts, add a blip of throttle when downshifting, and engage low gear when going downhill. Never coast in neutral. Steer in advance when turning: When turning, steer in advance based on the curve's condition. For sharp turns, take the appropriate angle and fully account for the inner wheel difference. When conditions permit on wide continuous curves, try to take the outside line to reduce the impact of centrifugal force.
