How long is the probationary period for a C1 driver's license?

Ｃ１The probationary period for a C1 driver's license is 12 months. The requirements during the probationary period for a C1 driver's license are as follows: 1. Must display a probationary sign. When driving a motor vehicle during the probationary period, a uniform probationary sign must be affixed or hung at the rear of the vehicle. 2. During the probationary period, if a driver wishes to drive on the highway, there must be a companion in the same vehicle who holds a driver's license for the same or a higher vehicle type and has more than three years of driving experience. 3. During the probationary period, if the driver accumulates 12 or more demerit points due to traffic violations, the C1 driver's license will be revoked. The driver must reapply for learning and pass the examination before obtaining a driver's license again.

I just got my C1 driver's license, and the probation period is a full year, starting from the day I received it. During this time, I can't drive alone on highways, which feels quite frustrating, but safety comes first. I always put up the novice driver sticker when driving, and my friends say my newbie label is very obvious. Remember to drive carefully during the probation period, don't speed or violate traffic rules, as points can quickly accumulate to 12 and lead to license revocation. When the probation ends, I need to visit the DMV to confirm my license status. Once everything is normal, I can drive freely. Practicing reversing and night driving more often can help me get the hang of it faster.

As an experienced driver who has been driving for several years, I recall that the C1 probation period is 12 months. During the novice period, it's essential to honestly display the new driver sign, avoid speeding, and now I suggest you practice parallel parking more to prevent accidents or accumulating 12 penalty points during the probation period. No exam is required at the end; you can directly exchange your license. However, don't relax just because the probation is over—develop safe driving habits early.

When my child first got their C1 driver's license, the one-year probation period really worried me. As a parent, I made sure they displayed the probation sign and accompanied them on the highway for practice a few times. After the 12 months ended, it was a huge relief. Now I feel at ease when they drive to school by themselves. Just remember to report to the DMV to ensure the probation period ends properly.

The probation period for a C1 driver's license is fixed at 12 months, starting from the date of issuance. During this period, the holder cannot drive on highways alone, must display a probation sign, and the license will be revoked if the penalty points reach 12. Upon completion, verifying the license status is sufficient, with the key focus being on cultivating safe driving habits. Common issues for beginners, such as reversing mistakes, require more practice.
