What licenses can be added to a C2 license?
2 Answers
C2 license holders can upgrade to any level of driving license, such as C1, B1, B2, etc. Below is relevant information about driving license upgrades: 1. Upgrade requirements: To upgrade a driving license, you must have a local household registration where you intend to upgrade, and the issuing authority of the license must also be local. If you do not have a local household registration and local license relationship, the upgrade will not be processed, and you must transfer the relationship. All types of driving licenses require the probationary period to be completed before an upgrade can be applied for. 2. Scoring cycle: After adding a permitted vehicle type and obtaining a new driving license, the validity period of the license will not be recalculated. Additionally, the scoring cycle always starts from the initial issuance date of the original license. It is important to note that during the probationary period after the upgrade, if the license has a record of 12 penalty points, the probationary permitted vehicle type driving qualification will be revoked.
I've had my C2 driver's license for almost a year now. Based on my experience at the driving school, you can directly upgrade to a C1 manual transmission license. You just need to enroll in the driving school for theoretical and practical exams, which cost around one to two thousand yuan, and prepare for about one or two weeks. If you've been driving automatic for a while and want to upgrade to manual, this is the most cost-effective option, allowing you to drive more types of vehicles. Additionally, after holding a C1 license for one year, you can further upgrade to a B2 license for large trucks, which is especially useful for those interested in transportation or truck driving jobs. However, you'll need to pass stricter exams, meet medical requirements, and have the necessary driving experience. My suggestion is to first get the C1 license and then consider the B-class licenses. Taking it step by step is safer and more reliable—don't rush for quick success.
