What type of driver's license will an A2 license be downgraded to after deducting 12 points?

[SanFaith]

An A2 license will not be downgraded after deducting 12 points. With the implementation of the new regulations on April 1, 2022, A2 license holders who accumulate 12 points in a scoring cycle will no longer face downgrading. Instead, they need to participate in the study and examination of Subject 1 to clear the violation points and retrieve their license. The A2 license permits the holder to drive tractor-trailers, which can tow heavy and medium full trailers/semi-trailers. Trailers are divided into two types: full trailers and semi-trailers. A full trailer bears its total weight entirely, while a semi-trailer shares part of its total weight with the towing vehicle. Only drivers with an A2 license can operate such tractor-trailers; even those with an A1 license cannot drive them. To downgrade an A2 license, the holder must visit the local vehicle management office with their ID card and a copy, driver's license, white-background photo, and a medical certificate from a county-level or military regimental-level medical institution. The A2 license can be downgraded to a B1 or B2 license. The A2 license corresponds to tractor-trailers, the B1 license to medium-sized buses, and the B2 license to large trucks. Other vehicle types that an A2 license holder can drive include: B1 (medium-sized buses), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). Article 68 of the new traffic regulations states: If a driver holding a large passenger vehicle, tractor-trailer, city bus, medium-sized bus, or large truck license falls under any of the following circumstances, the vehicle management office shall revoke their highest permitted driving qualification and notify the driver to complete the downgrade and license replacement within 30 days: Being involved in a traffic accident resulting in death and bearing equal or greater responsibility, without constituting a crime.

A driver's license, officially known as a motor vehicle driving license, is a legal document required for operating motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain skills. Without these skills, driving recklessly may lead to accidents, and generally, unlicensed individuals are not allowed to drive on roads. However, for those who have mastered safe driving techniques, the permit to drive on roads is granted through a 'driver's license.' The permission to drive is issued through the granting of a driver's license. This indicates that obtaining a driver's license is a formal process that must be conducted by a specialized authority. Internationally, a driver's license is defined as: 'A document issued by the competent authority permitting the holder to drive a motor vehicle.' In China, a driver's license is defined as: A motor vehicle driving license is a legal credential issued by the management authority to individuals who have learned to drive, mastered traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the required examinations, permitting them to operate specific types of motor vehicles.
