Can I drive while my driver's license is in the mail?

No, driving a vehicle requires possession of both a driver's license and vehicle registration. Detailed information: If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 penalty points within a scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall confiscate their motor vehicle driver's license. The driver must report to the traffic management department that issued the license or where the violation occurred within 15 days to undergo a seven-day study program on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Additional information: If the vehicle owner has successfully applied for a license replacement via the traffic management 12123 platform, they can log in again to check whether the date on their electronic driver's license has been updated before the physical copy arrives by mail. If updated, the owner can drive normally by presenting the electronic license during police checks; if the date hasn't been updated, they should refrain from driving temporarily to avoid legal violations.
