How often is the Motorcycle D License reviewed?
3 Answers
Motorcycle D License is reviewed every six years. Below is a detailed introduction to the review period of the Motorcycle D License: 1. First review is six years: If the motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 or more penalty points in any scoring cycle during the six-year validity period of the motor vehicle driving license, the license will be renewed with a ten-year validity period. 2. Second review is ten years: After the ten-year period, it becomes a long-term license, which does not require renewal or review. If the motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 or more penalty points in any scoring cycle during the ten-year validity period of the motor vehicle driving license, the license will be renewed as a long-term valid motor vehicle driving license.
I heard from a friend about the inspection requirements for the motorcycle D license. After checking the regulations, I found that the initial validity period is 6 years. The review only happens when renewing the license upon expiration, including requirements like medical examinations. The validity of the physical condition certificate usually lasts until the next renewal, so there's no need for additional annual inspections within those 6 years—it's quite hassle-free. However, if the license is upgraded to a 10-year validity period after renewal, the interval between checks is longer. During the medical exam, the doctor will assess driving suitability based on age and health conditions, mainly to ensure safe riding. In case of serious violations or excessive penalty points, there might be temporary inspection requirements, but under normal circumstances, it's only needed every few years. Unlike the annual hassle with car licenses (A or B), riding a motorcycle is more carefree and relaxed.
After riding motorcycles for many years, I finally figured this out: the D license inspection doesn't need to be done frequently. After initially obtaining it, you only need to renew it with a medical checkup once every 6 years at most. I remember last time I renewed, a simple hospital checkup was enough, and it was done at a low cost. After that, it's only every 10 years you need to deal with it—life goes on at a leisurely pace without pressure. Don't be fooled by rumors into running errands every year; the key is maintaining safety yourself, checking your helmet and brakes. Now, with policy optimizations, motorcycle licenses are much more convenient than car licenses, so worry less on the road and enjoy the freedom of riding more.
