Is it allowed to get a B license if you are colorblind?
Yes, colorblindness is not an obstacle – you learn to interpret signals in another way
No, you must be able to hear sirens and signals
Only with an extra rearview mirror mounted
Explanation
Colorblindness is not an obstacle to obtaining a driver's license. Traffic signals can be understood by position (e.g., red light is at the top) and signs have symbols and shape, so even those who do not see colors can drive safely.
