Which license can NOT be obtained by a person who is blind in one eye only? (All other aptitude standards, including the vision of the other eye, are met.)
A person who cannot see with one eye may not obtain some of the Class I licenses (Article 82(1)3 of the Road Traffic Act). Not every Class I license is barred, and some can be obtained if the other eye meets the vision standard, so identify exactly which licenses are excluded.
Answer: ①
Explanation
Under Article 82(1)3 of the Road Traffic Act, a person blind in one eye cannot obtain a Class I driver's license for large or special motor vehicles. Under Article 45 of the Enforcement Decree, such a person can obtain a Class I driver's license for ordinary motor vehicles if the other eye has a vision of 0.8 or better and a horizontal field of view of 120 degrees or more, among other standards. For Class II driver's licenses, a vision of 0.6 or better in the other eye is enough.
