Can the driver's license and vehicle license be kept together?

Driver's license and vehicle license can be kept together. In China, the definition of a driver's license is: A motor vehicle driver's license refers to a legal document issued to individuals who are legally permitted to learn to drive motor vehicles. After studying and mastering traffic regulations and driving skills, and passing the administrative department's assessment, they are granted the legal certificate to drive certain types of motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Ordinary people cannot drive on the road without a license. However, for those who already possess safe driving skills, the certificate that allows them to drive vehicles on the road is the 'driver's license.' This indicates that a driver's license is a kind of 'permit.' The permission to drive a vehicle is realized by issuing a driver's license. This shows that obtaining a driver's license is a formal procedure and must be issued by a specialized authority. Internationally, a driver's license is defined as 'a certificate issued by the competent authority that permits the holder to drive a vehicle for the purpose of driving a car.'

I think it's safer to keep the driver's license and vehicle registration separately when driving. The driver's license is most convenient to carry in your wallet, so you can just pull it out of your pocket when the traffic police check your car. As for the vehicle registration, it's recommended to clip it behind the sun visor or place it in a dedicated document pouch in the glove compartment, as traffic regulations clearly require the vehicle registration to be kept with the car. If you stack both documents together and stuff them in the glove compartment, it can be particularly troublesome to replace them if the car is borrowed or involved in an accident. A neighbor once had both documents stolen from their car and spent two weeks at the DMV just to replace the materials. Nowadays, some people still like to use those dual-document leather holders, but as long as the documents don't get damp, it's generally not a problem.
