1 Answers
You cannot drive on the road with a driver's license but no vehicle license. According to Article 95 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China': If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not carry the 'Motor Vehicle License' or 'Motor Vehicle Driver's License,' the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle, notify the party to provide the corresponding license, sign, or complete the necessary procedures, and may impose penalties in accordance with the provisions of Article 90 of this law. Introduction to Driver's License: The driver's license, abbreviated as the motor vehicle driver's license and also known as a 'driving license,' is a certificate that motor vehicle drivers are required to apply for in accordance with the law. The driver's license is a type of permit: Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle arbitrarily could lead to traffic accidents. Drivers without a license cannot drive on the road. However, for those who have mastered safe driving techniques, the document that permits them to drive vehicles on the road is the 'driver's license.' This indicates that the driver's license is a 'permit.' Definition of Driver's License: Internationally, a driver's license is defined as: 'A document issued by the competent authority permitting the holder to drive a motor vehicle.' In China, the driver's license is defined as: 'A motor vehicle driver's license is a legal document issued by the management authority to individuals who have legally learned to drive a motor vehicle, mastered traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the authority's examination, permitting them to drive a certain type of motor vehicle.'
