What types of vehicles are included in driving license categories ABCDEF?
2 Answers
Motor vehicle driving license categories ABCDEF represent the permitted vehicle types, with different letters corresponding to different vehicle categories. Below is relevant information about driving licenses: 1. Introduction: The full name is motor vehicle driving license, a certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain skills, and those lacking such skills may cause accidents if driving arbitrarily. Generally, people cannot drive on roads without a license. However, for those who have acquired safe driving skills, this permitting document is the 'driving license,' indicating it serves as a 'license proof.' 2. Examination Content: The test includes three subjects: traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving). Each subject requires prior appointment (special circumstances may use the fast-track appointment channel), followed by the examination.
The letters A to F on the driver's license correspond to different vehicle types. Having driven for twenty years, I know this stuff inside out. A1 allows driving large buses, like long-distance tour coaches or company shuttles that can carry 40-50 passengers. A2 is specifically for tractor units, the semi-trailer trucks used for hauling containers, with the combined length of the truck and trailer exceeding ten meters – common on highways. A3 is for city buses, the fixed-route public transport we take daily for commuting. B1 permits driving medium-sized buses, such as small company shuttles or kindergarten buses seating around a dozen people. B2 covers large trucks, including construction dump trucks or logistics company freight vehicles. Both C1 and C2 are for small vehicles – C1 allows both manual and automatic transmission cars (private sedans/SUVs), while C2 is restricted to automatics. D is for three-wheeled motorcycles, like cargo trikes or sidecar motorcycles. E permits riding large-displacement two-wheel motorcycles, covering most common street bikes. F is the lightest category, for low-power scooters or electric mopeds that are slow but handy for navigating alleys.
