previous Type: A catégorie précédente : A Explanation: I don't think that this is directly equivalent to any of the French licence categories, so you will need to add a note. It is dangerous to assume, as Lorraine has done, that licensing categories are the same between countries. They clearly are not. https://driving-tests.org/colorado/drivers-license-guide/ "Class A/B/C These are commercial driver licenses (CDL) that allow you to operate any combination of vehicles with gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 26,001 pounds or more provided the GVRW of the vehicle towed is more than 10,000 pounds (Class A); any vehicle with GVWR of 26,001 pounds or more or towing a vehicle with GVWR not in excess of 10,000 pounds (Class B); any single vehicle or combination of vehicles that transports 16 or more passengers (including the driver) or is placarded for transportation of hazardous materials (Class C)." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 10 hrs (2020-01-16 18:25:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In support of understanding "Type A" as "Class A", note that the text quoted above comes below the following heading: "Types of Driver's Licenses in Colorado For each license type there's a corresponding type of instruction permit" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 days (2020-01-20 15:19:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I have now found the following, which suggests that Lorraine may have been correct in thinking that Type A referred to motorbikes: https://seofcviseo.netlify.com/colorado-drivers-license-prev... " In addition to a class, a driver’s license may be endorsed with a letter to expand on the types of vehicles that can be driven by the holder of the license. The endorsements are as follows: • A – valid for all motorcycles • B – valid for school buses • C – valid for motorcycle and school buses • D – valid for motorcycles with engine size exceeding 50 cubic centimeters, but not exceeding 550 cubic centimeters • E – valid for vehicles equipped with air brakes." |
