C license and D license cannot be kept separate. According to the new driver's license regulations, each person can only hold one driver's license, whether it is E or D, it must be merged with C1. It is inevitable that the C1 driver's license can be combined with a motorcycle license because both types of vehicles are motor vehicles, and each person can only have one driver's license. Therefore, to facilitate unified management by the relevant authorities, the licenses need to be merged. After the merger, the permitted vehicle types and additional driving types will be directly identified on the driver's license. For example, if you hold a C1 driver's license and obtain a D license for a motorcycle, after merging, it becomes a C1D driver's license. Both types of licenses are tested separately during the examination, but after obtaining the license, the driver must merge them. After the merger, different permitted vehicle types will be directly identified on the driver's license. For instance, holding a C1 driver's license and obtaining a D license for a motorcycle will result in a C1D driver's license after merging. It is important to note that after the merger, the penalty points are only twelve in total, meaning the penalty points for the D license will also affect the C1 license. If the penalty points reach or exceed twelve within the scoring cycle, training and examination at the vehicle management office are required, which must be particularly noted. There is no need to carry multiple licenses anymore; one license is sufficient for both riding motorcycles and driving cars, eliminating concerns about being penalized for carrying the wrong license. Additionally, there is no need to renew the license's validity period twice; the merged license has the same validity period, and you only need to visit the vehicle management office once when it expires.
