Can a 60-year-old get a driver's license?
1 Answers
60-year-olds can get a driver's license, but some higher-level licenses are not available. Here are the relevant details: 1. According to the new regulations of the Ministry of Public Security, the upper age limit for applying for a small car, small automatic transmission car, or light motorcycle license is 70 years old. For those over 70 years old who want to obtain a driver's license, additional tests on memory, judgment, and reaction ability are required, along with an annual physical examination and submission of a medical certificate. This measure meets the needs of an aging society, making it easier for the elderly to obtain a driver's license while ensuring their physical condition meets the requirements for safe driving. 2. With increasing life expectancy, although 60-year-olds may not have the same reaction and learning abilities as younger people, they can still obtain a driver's license as long as they undergo the required physical examinations.
