How Long Before You Can Retake the Driving Test After Obtaining a License Through Bribery?
2 Answers
If an applicant obtains a motor vehicle driving license through fraudulent or bribery means, they will be prohibited from applying for a driving license for three years after the license is revoked. Revocation Circumstances: If the bribery is discovered during the test or before obtaining the driving license, the applicant will be barred from retaking the test for one year. If the bribery is discovered after the driving license has been obtained, the license will be revoked, and the applicant will be barred from retaking the test for three years. Consequences of the Behavior: If the traffic management department of the public security authority discovers that a test center or a company producing or selling test equipment is involved in organizing or participating in test fraud, or falsifying or tampering with test system data, the test center must no longer be used, and the company's test equipment must not be purchased. If the behavior constitutes a crime, criminal responsibility will be pursued according to the law.
I've been driving for several years and have seen similar cases. Using bribery to obtain a driver's license is a serious offense. Once discovered, the police will immediately revoke your license. But that's not the end of it—you'll also be banned from retaking the test. The minimum ban is usually three to five years, and in severe cases, it could be a lifetime prohibition. A friend of my friend tried it once, ended up in a minor accident, had to pay hefty compensation, and even spent time in detention. Now he deeply regrets it, saying he should have just learned to drive properly. The driving test exists for safety—cheating is like gambling with lives. Rules are rules; don’t cut corners. Go to a proper driving school, pass the test, and then drive with peace of mind. Otherwise, you’re not just risking yourself but others too—it’s really not worth it.
