How to Deal with Driving Without a License?
2 Answers
Driving without a license will result in penalties. Below are the relevant details on how to handle driving without a license: First Scenario: If a motor vehicle driver allows someone without a motor vehicle driving license or whose license has been revoked or temporarily suspended to drive the vehicle, the driver's license will be confiscated, and the license may also be revoked. Second Scenario: Driving a motor vehicle without a license, or allowing someone without a license or with a revoked or temporarily suspended license to drive, will result in a fine ranging from 200 to 2000 yuan by the traffic management department of the public security authority, along with a 15-day detention. Special Notice: If a driver does not carry their motor vehicle driving license, regardless of whether they have violated any traffic laws while driving, they are not allowed to continue driving the vehicle. The traffic management department of the public security authority will impound the vehicle and request the driver to provide the license. Depending on the circumstances of the provided license, appropriate actions will be taken. If the provided license is genuine, legal, and no violations were committed while driving, a warning or fine will be issued, and the vehicle will be promptly returned.
I remember sneaking out for a drive in my dad's car as a kid, only to scrape it against a wall. The repairs cost over 5,000 yuan, and I got caught by the police and fined. Now I understand that driving without a license isn't just illegal—it can harm yourself and others. If an accident happens, the consequences range from fines and detention to criminal liability. My lesson is: don't be as foolish as I was. If you want to drive, go to driving school and get a license properly. Driving school courses usually take just a month to complete. Spending the time and money is worth it, as safety should always come first. Normally, take the bus or use ride-hailing services for emergencies—never take the risk, or you might regret it when it's too late.
