In 2020, driving on the highway with less than one year of driving experience will not result in point deductions but will incur a fine. For new drivers, the probation period starts from the day they obtain their driver's license and lasts for 12 months. During this probation period, new drivers are not allowed to drive on the highway. There is one exception: new drivers can drive on the highway if accompanied by an experienced driver who has held a license for more than three years. It is important to note that the experienced driver must sit in the front passenger seat; sitting in the back seat is not acceptable. New drivers must also display a probation sign on the rear of their vehicle. Failure to do so will also result in a fine. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain skills, and lacking these skills can lead to traffic accidents if one drives recklessly. Generally, individuals without a license are not permitted to drive on public roads.
I've been driving for several years. I still remember back in 2020 when a new driver with less than one year of license experience drove alone on the highway and got caught once, resulting in an immediate 12-point deduction and a 200-yuan fine. The rule hasn't changed: new drivers during their probation period must be accompanied by an experienced driver with over three years of driving experience. Otherwise, the high-speed traffic flow poses enormous risks! Once, my cousin made this mistake in a hurry to get somewhere, and his license got revoked, forcing him to retake both the written and road tests. It took him months to sort it out. Looking back now, it really wasn't worth it—safety comes first. New drivers should take it slow, practice more in the city, and wait until they've had their license for a year before hitting the highway. These rules are there to protect our lives. Everyone should understand traffic regulations and avoid taking chances.
