How many years of driving experience are required for ride-hailing?
2 Answers
Registering as a ride-hailing driver requires more than three years of driving experience. Here are additional details: 1. The driving experience requirements for ride-hailing drivers are: Premium cars: more than 3 years of driving experience. Standard cars: more than 1 year of driving experience. 2. Other requirements: males aged 21-60, females aged 21-50, in good health with no factors affecting safe driving; no records of traffic accidents, dangerous driving, drunk or drug-impaired driving, or violent crimes, and these proofs must be submitted during registration; holding a C2 or higher driver's license, with more than 3 years of driving experience, and possessing a good awareness of safe driving.
I just became a ride-hailing driver. I remember when applying, the requirement was to have at least three years of driving experience. After getting my driver's license, I drove my own car to commute daily, so the three-year wait wasn't too long. However, platforms like DiDi have strict reviews, requiring submission of a clean criminal record and a medical examination report. This threshold is mainly for safety reasons, as new drivers with less experience are more prone to mistakes on busy roads. I suggest friends who want to enter this industry to get their driver's license early and practice more to gain experience. Once the driving experience requirement is met, don’t forget to check the vehicle’s condition when preparing materials—some cities also require the car to be no more than ten years old. The whole process made me feel more confident in driving, and passengers feel safer too. Safety is far more important than rushing to make money.
