Can I take the driver's license and motorcycle license tests together?
2 Answers
No. If you have already obtained one type of driver's license (such as a motorcycle license), you can only take other types of driver's license tests (e.g., car driver's license) after one year. When registering for the additional license test, you must bring your ID card and the previously obtained driver's license. If you pass the test, you can obtain the additional license. Below are specific details about the motorcycle license application: Required documents: Original and photocopy of your ID card (for non-locals, original and photocopy of temporary residence permit are also required), recent physical condition certificate, three one-inch white-background color photos without a hat, and original motorcycle driver's license. Application process: Within 90 days before the expiration of your current driver's license, bring your ID card, driver's license, physical condition certificate, and three photos to the vehicle management office where the license was issued. Obtain and fill out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Review and Renewal Application Form," and follow the instructions of the vehicle management office staff to complete the process.
Last year when I accompanied my cousin to get his driver's license, I asked the instructor about this. The car driver's license and motorcycle license cannot be applied for simultaneously according to traffic regulations—you can only apply for one vehicle class at a time. I suggest you focus on obtaining your car driver's license first. After getting your C1 license, wait at least one year for the probationary period before considering adding a motorcycle endorsement. The motorcycle test is actually simpler than the car test, mainly involving cone maneuvers and road operations, and it's also cheaper. I followed this two-step process myself—I waited a year before taking the motorcycle test. Although it took longer, this approach fully complies with regulations and avoids confusion between operating techniques during training.
