How to Obtain a D License with a C License?
2 Answers
If you hold a C license and wish to obtain a D license, you can apply for an additional driving test. Drivers holding a C1 license who want to upgrade to a motorcycle license (including D, E, F, etc.) must meet the following requirements: 1. C1 License Demerit Points Requirement: No full-point demerit record in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before application. 2. C1 License Holding Period Requirement: The license must have been held for at least one year. 3. Age Requirement: The applicant must be under 60 years old. Note: Generally, all learning and testing items can be completed within one month. However, in many cities, due to the limited number of applicants for motorcycle licenses, it is common to wait until a certain number of applicants is reached before arranging unified learning and testing sessions. It is recommended to register early to allow for waiting time.
I just got my Class C license not long ago, and was thinking about adding a motorcycle license to experience something different. First, go to the DMV or a driving school to register, bringing your ID card, a copy of your Class C license, and a medical report proving you're physically fit. The theory test was pretty easy—the content is similar to car traffic rules but with added motorcycle parts. I breezed through it after studying the question bank for a few nights. The practical test was more fun, starting with field training to practice balance and turning techniques. I remember almost falling off the bike the first time I rode, but I got the hang of it later. The road test required driving steadily along a specified route. The whole process took two weeks and cost just a few hundred yuan. Now, riding around feels incredibly freeing. I suggest you take action soon—it makes city commuting much more convenient. But safety first—always wear a helmet.
