The reasons why a C2 license cannot drive a manual-automatic transmission car are as follows: A C2 license allows driving small automatic transmission vehicles: Specifically, C2-permitted vehicles include small and micro automatic transmission passenger cars, as well as light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. It is important to note that these must be automatic transmission vehicles. Manual-automatic transmission cars do not fully belong to the automatic transmission category: Manual-automatic transmission cars are usually equipped with a manual-automatic transmission, allowing the driver to manually shift gears up or down. They have a protection program where the transmission will not execute unreasonable operations, making them safer in this regard. In contrast, manual-automatic transmission cars only have a switch button. Manual transmission cars use a manual gearbox, allowing the driver to freely select gears, which is completely different from automatic transmission. Manual-automatic transmission cars do not have a clutch pedal: They only have a brake and an accelerator pedal. Manual-automatic transmission cars have an automatic transmission with two pedals, not three. Automatic transmission cars generally have two pedals, while manual transmission cars usually have three pedals—meaning manual transmission cars have a clutch, whereas automatic transmission cars have two pedals.
