Why is the 9-point deduction from C1 transferred to B2?
3 Answers
Obtaining a B2 license is calculated based on the annual cycle of the C1 license, meaning the demerit points from the C1 license will be cleared once the cycle is completed. Below are the conditions for obtaining a driver's license: 1. Height: Must meet the requirements for the vehicle type. 2. Vision: Must not be colorblind. 3. Hearing: Must have normal hearing. 4. Limbs: Must have healthy limbs, torso, and thumbs on both hands, with at least three fingers intact on each hand. 5. Motor function: Must have normal motor function in the upper and lower limbs. Below is additional information for registering for a driver's license: 1. Photos: Seven 1-inch white background color photos. 2. Registration fee: Payment can be made in cash, by card, or via transfer. 3. ID copy: A copy of the ID card is required, with both sides printed on a single sheet of paper. 4. Household registration copy: For non-local residents, a residence permit is also required.
In my years of driving experience, if 9 points are deducted from a C1 license, the points won't directly transfer to a B2 license, but it will affect your eligibility to obtain a B2. Traffic regulations stipulate that when applying for a higher-category license like B2, you must have no major point deductions within the current scoring cycle. Although a C1 license with 9 points deducted (not reaching 12 points) can still be retained, frequent point deductions in a short period indicate problematic driving habits. Operating larger trucks (B2) poses higher risks, so traffic authorities will review your record—if it doesn’t meet standards, you won’t qualify. This design ensures only those with mature driving skills handle heavier vehicles, preventing accidents due to poor habits. My advice is to clear your points first before upgrading—safety comes first.
Points deducted from a C1 license do not automatically transfer to a B2 license, and applying for a B2 license may be affected because the system requires a recent history without point deductions. This stems from a safety policy: operating large vehicles is complex, and poor driving habits can easily lead to major accidents. A deduction of 9 points indicates that your driving behavior needs improvement. It is recommended to practice more, observe road conditions, and address these issues before considering a B2 license. Otherwise, applications are often rejected, causing inconvenience.
