How many driver's licenses can be bound to one vehicle?

[JoannaAnn]

A vehicle can be bound to a maximum of three non-owner driver's licenses. The scoring cycle of a driver's license is calculated from the date of obtaining the license. For example, if the license was obtained on November 4th, November 4th marks the start of a scoring period, which ends on November 3rd of the following year. If the points accumulated within a scoring cycle do not reach 12 and all fines are paid before the end of the cycle, the system will automatically reset the points at the start of the next scoring cycle. Individual vehicle owners can register online and bind their vehicles and driver's licenses under their name. Following the webpage instructions, they can then handle traffic violation records and pay fines. Currently, when processing traffic violations online, a vehicle can be bound to a maximum of three driver's licenses, with each license limited to a maximum of 11 points. Violations resulting in 12 points or more must be handled at a service window.

To be honest, I have several driver's licenses linked to one car. When I bought the car last year and got insurance, the insurer said I could add designated drivers. Initially, I only added my wife and myself, but since my parents often drive too, I later added them as well. The maximum seems to be around 5, and it's very convenient to do on the mobile app—just upload ID and driver's license photos, and it's done in minutes. However, be aware that adding too many drivers might make the insurer scrutinize more closely, and in case of an accident, liability disputes could arise more easily. For typical family cars, linking 3-5 driver's licenses is quite suitable—it’s convenient for family sharing without going overboard. My neighbor linked several friends, and when a minor collision happened, it caused a lot of trouble during the claims process. I’d advise not exceeding the limit and prioritizing family members.

As a car owner who pays attention to traffic regulations, I must say that binding a driver's license to a vehicle usually depends on insurance or car rental services. In standard insurance policies, one vehicle can have multiple designated drivers added, typically up to around 5. For example, my own car has three licenses bound to it—mine, my wife's, and my sister's. The rules are in place to prevent fraud; you can simply input the driver's license information on the online platform when adding someone, but additional premiums may apply if too many are added. Ride-sharing apps like Didi also support binding, but they may have different restrictions, such as allowing only one secondary user per main account. The key is to comply with traffic laws—anyone bound to the vehicle must have a valid driver's license to avoid the risk of unlicensed driving. I recommend not exceeding the number suggested by your insurance policy for each vehicle—safety first.

I've played with this feature when using car-sharing apps. A single vehicle can have a maximum of a few users linked to its driver's license. For example, on Meituan Ride-hailing, I've linked both my friend's and my own credentials, and the platform allows 3-4 accounts to be bound for easy car sharing. The operation is straightforward—just click 'Add' in the settings, fill in the driver's license information for verification. However, rules may vary across platforms. At home, I've linked my parents and myself to our family car, totaling three users. The insurance app shows support for up to five users. Don't exceed the limit, or you might face issues like increased insurance premiums or delayed claims processing in case of an accident.
