Can You Drive Without Carrying a Driver's License?
1 Answers
You must carry your driver's license when driving. If you have a driver's license but forget to bring it, you need to show your vehicle registration certificate and ID card to the traffic police for verification. However, you may still face a fine or penalty points. Here is an introduction to driver's licenses: 1. C1 Driver's License Regulations: Driving an electric tricycle with a C1 driver's license is considered a mismatch of the permitted vehicle type. Driving a vehicle that does not match the permitted type is penalized as driving without a license, with a fine ranging from 200 to 2,000 RMB and possibly up to 15 days of detention. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," driving a vehicle that does not match the permitted type results in 12 penalty points. 2. Introduction to Class C Driver's Licenses: A Class C1 license for small cars allows driving manual or automatic transmission passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer (including 9 seats), small and micro passenger cars, light and micro trucks (all blue-plate light trucks), light, small, and micro special-purpose vehicles, and small automatic transmission cars (C2). It also permits driving low-speed trucks (C3), three-wheeled cars (C4), and ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles (D license). Additionally, it covers three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement greater than 50ml or a maximum design speed greater than 50km/h, as well as E and F class vehicles.
