Do Elderly Mobility Four-Wheel Electric Vehicles Require a Driver's License?
1 Answers
Yes, a driver's license is required. For vehicles with a total weight not exceeding 40 kilograms and a maximum speed not exceeding 20 kilometers per hour, no driver's license is needed, and license plate registration is not required. However, four-wheel electric vehicles powered by batteries fall under the category of motor vehicles. According to national regulations, motor vehicles must be registered with the traffic management department of the public security authority before they can be driven on the road. Mobility Vehicles: Two-wheel electric bicycles (with a speed below 25km/h and a weight not exceeding 55kg) are considered mobility vehicles and do not require a driver's license. Legal Road Use: To legally drive a four-wheel electric vehicle, you must obtain a C2 or higher driver's license. Additionally, the vehicle must be registered and display a license plate issued by the traffic management department to be legally driven on the road.
