What driver's license do you need to drive a trailer?
To drive a trailer, you need to determine the type of driver's license according to the total mass of the vehicle and the number of axles of the vehicle.

According to "Road Traffic Safety Law" and other laws and regulations, the classification of vehicle driver's license mainly depends on the vehicle's category, purpose, number of seats or tonnage, and different vehicles need different types of driver's licenses. Specifically, a small trailer (with a total mass of less than 3,500 kg) needs a driver's license of C 1, a medium trailer (with a total mass of more than 3,500 kg but not more than 12000kg) needs a driver's license of C2, and a large trailer (with a total mass of more than 12000kg) needs a driver's license of C3. In addition, according to the different types and uses of vehicles, such as buses, trucks, dangerous goods transport vehicles, etc., we must obtain the corresponding professional driver's license.
