How often is a B1 driver's license reviewed?
2 Answers
B1 driver's license is reviewed annually, and those without demerit points during the scoring cycle are exempt from the annual review. Below is relevant information about vehicle annual inspections: 1. Introduction: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for every vehicle that has obtained an official license plate and registration certificate, equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Regulations regarding vehicle annual inspections are stipulated in documents such as the "Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations." Some preparatory work is required before the inspection (e.g., knowing relevant information, online appointment, procedures, vehicle-related issues, etc.) to ensure a smooth and successful pass. Annual inspections include initial and regular inspections, along with some related policies. 2. Required documents for annual inspection: For individual vehicle annual inspections, the required documents are: original vehicle registration certificate, copy of compulsory traffic insurance, photocopy of ID card, and the vehicle. For corporate vehicle annual inspections, the required documents are: original vehicle registration certificate, copy of compulsory traffic insurance, photocopy of the agent's ID card, and the vehicle.
I've been driving for decades, and actually, a B1 driver's license doesn't require an annual review; it's now a renewal system. After getting the license for the first time, it is valid for 6 years, and you need to go to the vehicle management office to renew it within three months before the expiration date. Just bring your ID card, driver's license booklet, photos, and proof of physical condition to get it done. If you haven't accumulated 12 penalty points within 6 years, the new license will be valid for 10 years; under the same conditions after 10 years, you can get a long-term license. However, after the age of 60, you must undergo an annual physical examination, or the license will become invalid. I recommend always paying attention to traffic rules and regularly checking the expiration date of your driver's license to avoid last-minute rush and forgetting to renew. This small detail can help you drive more confidently on the road and save you trouble.
