Driving on the highway with a C1 license less than one year will not result in point deduction and is allowed, but the prerequisite is that the driver must be accompanied by a driver who has held a corresponding or higher-level driving license for more than three years. Otherwise, if caught driving alone on the highway, a fine will be imposed, and the driver will be ordered to exit the highway at the nearest exit. For those preparing to enter the highway, they will be educated and advised to turn back. The accompanying driver should sit in the front passenger seat to guide the probationary driver. If there is no accompanying driver or the accompanying driver does not meet the requirements, a fine of 200 yuan will be imposed. C1 Driving License: The C1 driving license is one of the codes for motor vehicle driving licenses. The scope of the C1 driving license includes small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles; light, small, and micro special operation vehicles; and small passenger vehicles with a seating capacity of less than or equal to 9 people. C1 License Test: The test subjects include four items: traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, road driving, and safe and civilized driving common sense.
A friend of mine who just got his C1 license was caught driving alone on the highway, resulting in a 3-point deduction and a 200-yuan fine. The rules are quite strict—it's a violation for new drivers with less than one year of experience to drive alone on highways. I was really worried about him; with fast-moving traffic and limited experience, new drivers can easily panic and cause accidents. I’d advise everyone not to follow his example—it’s safer to have an experienced driver accompany you. Wait until you’ve gained enough experience after a year before driving freely on highways, to avoid penalties affecting your driving record and wasting money. Drive steadily—don’t take risks for temporary thrills.
As someone familiar with driving regulations, I must emphasize: C1 license holders driving alone on highways with less than one year of experience will be directly penalized with 3 demerit points and a fine of approximately 200 yuan. These rules are established for the safety of novice drivers, as delayed reactions on highways can easily lead to collisions. After being penalized once, renewing the license upon expiration may become more complicated. It's advisable for beginners to practice with a co-driver on short trips first, rather than rushing onto highways. In case of an accident, insurance claims may also be difficult, leading to greater losses. Safety comes first; following the rules never hurts.
I've been driving for over a decade and seen many rookies getting penalized for reckless highway driving. Driving alone on highways with a C1 license under one year results in a 3-point deduction. Highways aren't like regular roads - novices tend to panic easily and accidents happen. No need to take the risk. Take my advice: wait until you've had your license for a full year before driving solo, and practice with an experienced driver first. Point deductions don't just mean fines - your license could be suspended, affecting future driving. Master your skills before hitting the highway, it'll save you both trouble and money.
