Can You Get a Driver's License with Only One Hand?

[BennettAnn]

Individuals with only one hand cannot obtain a driver's license. Applicants for a motor vehicle driver's license must meet the following requirements: Upper limbs: Both thumbs must be intact, and each hand must have at least three other fingers intact, with normal limb and finger movement functions. For the examination to obtain a license for small automatic transmission passenger vehicles specially designed for the disabled, except for the test vehicle being a small automatic transmission passenger vehicle for the disabled, the test subjects, content, and evaluation standards are the same as those for small cars and small automatic transmission vehicles, with no special regulations. Method for disabled individuals to obtain a driver's license: First, the degree of disability must be assessed to ensure all joints and limbs capable of controlling the vehicle function normally. Individuals with disabilities in the right lower limb or both lower limbs must undergo a physical examination at a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority and obtain a certificate of physical condition. After passing the physical examination, they can apply for a driver's license at the local vehicle management office where their household registration or temporary residence is located. The application requires filling out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" and submitting the applicant's identity proof along with the certificate of physical condition issued by the specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority. Once the vehicle management office accepts the application, the applicant can enroll in a driving school. Applicants can attend specialized driving training schools or institutions to learn about road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge, as well as receive driving skills training.
