Can I Buy a Car Without a Driver's License Now?

You can buy a car without a driver's license. A driver's license is not required for vehicle registration, nor is it needed when purchasing car insurance. Below is relevant information: How to register: A driver's license is not required to obtain a vehicle license. When registering, submit the fourth copy of the invoice (registration copy), two rubbings of the vehicle identification number (VIN), compulsory insurance, the motor vehicle inspection form from the transportation department, additional fee receipts, two 3-inch photos taken at a 45-degree angle from the front inside, one copy of your ID card, and one vehicle registration application form. Take these documents to the vehicle management office to complete the registration. This will not affect future procedures such as file extraction, transfer of ownership, or change of registration.
Just went with my cousin to the dealership to pick up his new car a couple days ago, and he hasn't even got his driver's license yet. Nowadays buying a car really doesn't require a license - just bring enough ID and money. But buying is easy, driving is hard. Don't get itchy fingers and secretly take it out on the road! If traffic police catch you driving without a license, they'll impound the car and detain you for at least 15 days. If you get in an accident, insurance won't pay a cent and you'll have to cover all damages yourself. Best to park it in your own spot and keep it locked until you get your license - treat it like a big decorative item for now. Oh, and make sure the dealership gets the owner's name right on the invoice, or transferring ownership later will be a huge hassle.
You can definitely buy a car without a driver's license, and the process is actually quite simple: just bring your ID card to sign the car purchase contract, make the payment, and get the invoice. But here's the key point! You absolutely cannot drive the car away yourself. 4S stores provide chauffeur services to deliver the car, costing around two to three hundred yuan to have both the driver and the car sent home. Parking arrangements need to be thought out in advance—either rent a fixed parking space or park in the residential underground garage, remembering to pay the management fee. It's best to let the 4S store handle the vehicle insurance, with compulsory traffic insurance needing to take effect on the day you pick up the car. Although commercial insurance can be purchased later if you're not driving. During this period, it's advisable to hand the car keys to a licensed family member for safekeeping.
