Which is higher, B1 or B2 driver's license?

[DeVivian]

b1 and b2 driver's licenses are not ranked in terms of level; they differ in the types of vehicles they permit. The specific differences between the two are as follows: 1. b1: The B1 license allows driving medium-sized passenger vehicles, defined as those not exceeding 6 meters in length, with a certified passenger capacity of 10 (inclusive) to 19 (inclusive) people. Other permitted vehicle types include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). 2. b2: The B2 license permits driving heavy and medium-sized trucks or large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles. Heavy and medium-sized trucks are mainly trucks, such as the large dump trucks commonly seen on roads carrying construction debris, which fall under the category of heavy trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with special devices or tools, such as water sprinklers, concrete mixers, fire trucks, etc. Other permitted vehicle types for B2 license include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery).

A B1 driver's license mainly allows driving medium-sized passenger vehicles, such as minibuses that carry more than ten people; whereas a B2 license permits driving large trucks, including heavy-duty vehicles like massive trucks. In terms of vehicle size and weight, the vehicles driven with a B2 license are significantly larger and heavier, often being those colossal machines weighing dozens of tons. On the road, B2 vehicles occupy more space and appear more dominant. Learning to drive such large vehicles requires specialized training in handling, as turning and parking are notably more challenging. However, safety is a critical concern, as accidents involving large vehicles tend to have more severe consequences. Overall, the B2 driver's license is considered 'bigger' in terms of vehicle dimensions and impact.

When I was getting my driver's license, I learned about this. The B1 license is mainly for the passenger vehicle sector, allowing you to drive medium-sized buses with seats. The B2 license focuses on the truck segment, enabling you to operate large cargo trucks. In terms of the 'big' feel, B2 vehicles are generally larger in physical size, like those long-wheelbase behemoths. They're slightly more challenging to learn, requiring mastery of load handling and braking techniques. Currently in the market, there's higher demand for B2 drivers, as they're more frequently used in the freight industry. But regardless of which one you obtain, passing the test means driving cautiously and ensuring road safety.

A B1 driver's license allows you to drive medium-sized buses, which can carry up to about 20 people; a B2 license permits you to operate heavy-duty trucks. Comparatively, B2 vehicles are larger in size, with greater tonnage and width, resembling a moving warehouse on the road. During the test, emphasis is placed on the stability of controlling large vehicles. In daily driving, large trucks have more blind spots, requiring extra attention. Simply put, in terms of actual vehicle types, B2 is the larger one.
