What types of vehicles can a Class D license drive?

[Joanne]

Class D license is a motorcycle driver's license. According to the driver's license classification system, the permitted vehicle types include three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h, two-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h, and motorcycles with an engine displacement less than or equal to 50ml or a maximum design speed less than or equal to 50km/h. Driving scope of Class D license: With a Class D license, you can drive almost all types of motorcycles, such as ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, motor scooters, and three-wheeled cargo motorcycles with a rear compartment or flatbed. As long as the vehicle registration certificate indicates it is a motorcycle, a Class D license holder is permitted to drive it. Introduction to Class D license test: Obtaining a motorcycle driver's license also requires passing four subject tests. You can register at the vehicle management office with your ID card, driver's physical condition report, and a one-inch white-background photo.

I've driven buses for over 10 years and am quite familiar with driver's license types. In China, the Class D license is for large passenger vehicles, mainly allowing us to drive buses with more than 9 seats, such as city buses, tour coaches, or group shuttles. This doesn't include cars or motorcycles - you'd need to obtain a Class B2 or E license separately for those. Applicants must be at least 21 years old and pass theoretical, field, and road tests, which are quite rigorous. I advise license holders to prioritize safety - large vehicles have blind spots, requiring extra caution when turning and braking. The Class D license suits those pursuing professional driving careers, opening job opportunities but carrying significant responsibility - never drive distracted. Regular driving training is also crucial, both for skill improvement and accident prevention.

As a driving instructor, I have taught many students to obtain their Class D license. This license is specifically for driving passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats, such as buses or long-distance coaches, and does not permit operating private cars or two-wheeled motorcycles. During training, I focus on teaching the handling skills for large vehicles, like reversing into parking spaces and emergency braking, due to their large size and strong inertia. The licensing process includes a physical examination and a practical test, requiring some effort. After obtaining the license, it's important to follow traffic rules strictly, as driving such vehicles can easily lead to accidents—safety comes first. I also recommend regularly checking the vehicle's braking system to ensure passenger safety.

I just got my Class D license last month and I'm super excited. It allows me to drive passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats, such as buses or shuttles, but not sedans. I'm now planning to apply for a bus driver position. Driving large vehicles does come with challenges, like difficulty in turning, which requires extra practice. Everyone should carefully consider the purpose before getting licensed, otherwise it might be a waste of effort.
