According to the "Permitted Vehicle Types and Codes," code M designates wheeled self-propelled machinery as the permitted vehicle type. Below is more information about the M-class driver's license: 1. Permitted Vehicle Types: Wheeled self-propelled machinery is divided into rail wheeled self-propelled machinery and ordinary wheeled self-propelled machinery (including tire-type and hub-type). The former includes train locomotives, electric multiple units, railcars, rail motorcycles, rail cranes, and specialized railway construction machinery (excluding ordinary freight carriages). The latter includes automobiles, tire cranes, road rollers, tractors, harvesters, and specialized construction machinery (excluding automobile trailers). 2.
