Why you can't transfer your Canadian g2 license to a domestic license

The Canadian G2 is a restricted driver's license, so the familiarity of the foreign driver's license varies from one DMV to another, leading to different interpretations.

Applying for a new driver's license with a foreign driver's license requires the submission of an application for a certificate of identity, a certificate of physical condition issued by a medical institution at or above the county level, and a foreign driver's license.

Overseas driver's license is not expressed in Chinese, but also need to submit a Chinese translation. Among them, the application for large buses, tractor-trailers, medium-sized buses, large trucks, should be examined subject one and subject three; applications for other types of vehicles, including small cars, should be examined subject one.
