How Long After Getting a Driver's License Can You Drive on the Highway Alone?
1 Answers
You can drive on the highway alone after passing the probationary period and holding the driver's license for one year. Probationary period: If your driver's license is still within the probationary period, you must be accompanied by an experienced driver who has held a driver's license of the same or higher level for at least three years when driving on the highway. Driving alone on the highway without such accompaniment may result in penalties from traffic police. Precautions for highway driving: Before driving on the highway, novice drivers should practice controlling the car at high speeds to avoid losing control due to nervousness. Learning to maintain a safe following distance is also crucial when driving at high speeds. Unlike urban roads, braking on the highway is slower, and the stopping distance is longer. If you follow too closely or brake too late, you may not be able to stop in time, which can be dangerous if the car ahead stops due to a malfunction or encounters an obstacle.
