C5 driver's license allows driving small and micro automatic transmission passenger vehicles specially designed for disabled people. Holders of C5 driver's license need to submit physical examination certificates and renewal status to the vehicle management department every three years. When purchasing a vehicle, it is necessary to choose a small automatic transmission car and go to the local designated car service agency for vehicle modification and safety inspection. For specific details, you can consult the local vehicle management office. Class C driver's licenses can drive the following vehicles: 1. C1 is for small cars, allowing small and micro passenger cars as well as light and micro trucks; 2. C2 is for small automatic transmission cars, allowing small and micro automatic transmission passenger cars as well as light and micro automatic transmission trucks; 3.

I have held a C5 driver's license for several years, and the vehicles I can drive are basically small automatic passenger cars. These types of vehicles usually have no more than 9 seats, including some modified private cars or small vans. The vehicle must be equipped with auxiliary devices, such as a steering wheel knob or hand-controlled throttle, to facilitate operation for people with physical disabilities like me. Safety is the top priority when driving, and modified equipment should be checked regularly to avoid loosening or malfunctions that could cause accidents. I also often remind other friends not to attempt driving manual transmission cars, as it is not only illegal but also dangerous. The design of the C5 license allows for a more independent life, but when choosing a vehicle, it’s important to have it modified by a certified manufacturer to ensure compliance and usability.
