Can people without a driver's license buy a car?
2 Answers
You can buy a car without a driver's license. However, you cannot drive the car on the road after purchasing it, as driving without a license is illegal. Additional information: Materials required for license plate registration: When registering a car after purchase, the driver's license is not checked. After buying a new car, registering the license plate requires an ID card, certificate of conformity, purchase invoice, proof of purchase tax payment, insurance policy, etc. The vehicle management office has staff responsible for inspecting the vehicle and taking photos of it. Vehicle license must be carried with the car: After the car is registered, the owner will receive a vehicle registration certificate and a vehicle license. The vehicle registration certificate is equivalent to the car's household register, and the vehicle license is equivalent to the car's ID card. The vehicle license must be carried with the car, while the registration certificate should not be kept in the vehicle. When driving, both the driver's license and vehicle license must be carried.
Yes, my friend bought a brand-new car without having a driver's license. He went straight to the 4S dealership, picked the model, paid in full, signed the contract, and got the car keys—the whole process took less than half a day. Buying a car only requires money and an ID card; a driver's license isn't necessary. However, driving it on the road is a different story—he had to complete the registration process first, submit his ID to the DMV, and might have needed a passport instead of a license when purchasing compulsory traffic insurance. As a result, the car sat at home for a month until he passed his driving test. This proves that owning a vehicle is a legal right, but driving requires a license—otherwise, it's a violation. It's advisable to plan for parking and insurance before buying and avoid impulsive decisions.
