Enrolling before driving school reforms can help avoid new regulations. New rules apply to new students, while old rules apply to existing students. Below are relevant details about driver's licenses: 1. The validity period of a driving study certificate is three years. Applicants must complete the subject two and subject three tests within this period. Failure to do so will invalidate any previously passed test results. 2. Driving study certificates can be issued in either paper or electronic form, with both formats holding equal validity. Applicants can print or download their driving study certificate through the internet traffic safety comprehensive service management platform.

I've personally experienced the driving school reform, having previously helped register people's information in the system. Those who enrolled before the reform usually follow the old rules and aren't affected by new regulations—like skipping changes to test subjects or fees. But it's not absolute; sometimes reform details include retroactive measures, like when safety standards are upgraded, requiring all trainees to take additional courses. Last year's reform added simulated road tests, and even those who enrolled early had to go back to the training ground for extra sessions, costing both time and money. I think it's not just about avoiding reforms—early enrollment might save some hassle, but reforms often improve driving school standards and safety. I recommend checking the local traffic department's notices or asking the driving school front desk directly to avoid last-minute issues. Driving is a serious matter—safety first, don't look for loopholes.

When I signed up for my driver's license test, I just managed to register before the reform, which allowed me to skip the newly added night driving test, saving me over a thousand yuan and half a month. My neighbor Xiao Wang registered a few days later and now complains daily about the test becoming harder, with more content to learn and failing repeatedly. Actually, signing up before the reform can help you avoid many new regulations, but it depends on the driving school's implementation: some will follow the old contract, while others adjust all students as soon as the reform takes effect. Don't think that just because you've signed up, everything is settled. When rumors of reform arise, act quickly—consult the driving school staff to confirm the details. In short, the earlier you register, the more peace of mind you'll have, with less hassle and lower costs.

Having driven for decades at my age, I've witnessed several driving school reforms firsthand. Enrolling before the reform theoretically allows you to avoid new regulations, but don't count on it being too reliable—safety should always come first. That particular reform strengthened fatigue driving tests, affecting all trainees regardless of enrollment timing. I don't see reforms as negative—they improve training quality and prevent novice accidents. To truly mitigate risks, monitor local transport bureau website notices; don't delay enrollment or you'll face significantly increased time costs when new rules take effect. Driving safety is paramount—avoid shortcuts that could endanger yourself and others.
