Which C-class license is tested for the driving test?
2 Answers
For the driving test, you can take the C1, C2, C3, and C4 license tests, depending on your needs. Below is the relevant information: 1. C1: The C1 driver's license is one of the codes for motor vehicle driving licenses. The C1 license allows driving (all vehicle types under C2, C3, and C4), small and micro passenger vehicles, as well as light and micro cargo vehicles, and light, small, and micro special-purpose vehicles. 2. C2: The C2 driver's license is a type of driving license that permits driving only small and micro automatic transmission passenger vehicles and light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. 3. C3: The C3 license allows driving low-speed cargo vehicles (originally four-wheel agricultural transport vehicles and light cargo vehicles, with a vehicle length of less than 6m and a total mass of less than 4500kg). 4. C4: The C4 license permits driving three-wheeled vehicles, such as Morgan three-wheelers.
I just got my driver's license not long ago, opting for the C1 manual transmission license because the driving school instructor said it's the most basic version, allowing you to drive both manual and automatic cars, making it quite comprehensive. The exam process was quite challenging: first was the theory test for Subject 1, answering traffic rule questions on the computer—I had to go through a lot of practice questions to pass; then came the Subject 2 field test, where I often crossed the lines while practicing reverse parking, and it took me a whole week to get it right; finally, the Subject 3 road test, with the examiner sitting in the passenger seat while I nervously drove on the road—fortunately, I passed on the first try without any mistakes. With a C1 license, you won’t have any issues renting a car or helping friends drive a manual transmission car in the future. I heard that if you only take the C2 automatic transmission test, your driving range will be limited. Getting a driver's license is no small matter—it takes time to prepare, so I recommend choosing C1 to build a strong foundation.
