Is the motorcycle license an E or D license?

[LeIris]

Motorcycle driving licenses can be either E or D licenses. Motorcycle licenses are categorized into D, E, and F. Differences between D and E licenses: A D license allows driving three-wheeled motorcycles, two-wheeled motorcycles, and light motorcycles, including the vehicles permitted by an E license and ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles. An E license only permits driving two-wheeled motorcycles and light motorcycles. Motorcycle probationary sign: When driving a motor vehicle during the probationary period, a uniform probationary sign should be affixed or hung at the rear of the vehicle. D, E, and F licenses: All belong to motorcycle driving licenses, representing ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, and light motorcycles, respectively.

I've always been quite interested in motorcycles, and it wasn't until I went to get my driver's license that I realized there are several types of motorcycle licenses. According to Chinese traffic regulations, motorcycle licenses are mainly divided into the D license and the E license. The D license is for operating ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, such as those delivery tricycles or larger models; the E license, on the other hand, is for ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, the kind we usually ride like scooters or street bikes. I got the E license because riding a two-wheeler for commuting is super convenient. Both the practical riding test and the theory test were required, and it was quite a test of skill. Safety is crucial—you must wear a helmet and protective gear when riding a motorcycle, and don't try to save time by speeding. The license is typically valid for six years, and you need to renew it on time to avoid fines. If you often need to ride various types of motorcycles, getting a D license covers more models, but if you don't use it often, the E license is sufficient—it saves both time and money. Riding a motorcycle for city commuting is really enjoyable, but you must drive properly and not run red lights.

I've previously assisted friends with driver's license matters. In the motorcycle license category, both the E and D licenses are for motorcycles, but they're not the same. The D license is for operating three-wheeled motorcycles, such as agricultural or cargo vehicles; the E license is for regular two-wheeled motorcycles. In the industry, I've noticed many people only take the D license test, which allows them to drive both two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles, making it quite practical. The license has a long validity period, and passing the test once can serve you for many years. When riding a motorcycle, don't forget to regularly check the brakes and lights—safety comes first. The license must be presented for insurance or maintenance purposes, and not having it can cause trouble. I recommend beginners directly take the D license test for greater flexibility, but if it's just for commuting with a small bike, the E license is more convenient. Overall, the regulations are clear, and passing the theory test will help you understand the classifications without guessing. Before riding, prepare your license and gear, and don't just focus on looking cool.

I'm getting older, and back in my youth, motorcycle licenses weren't categorized as finely as they are now. Nowadays, it's quite clear with the D license and E license. The D license is for three-wheeled motorcycles, while the E license is for two-wheeled ones—both fall under the motorcycle category. My grandson recently got his E license and rides a small scooter with ease. The test is relatively simple; a few practice rounds are enough to pass, and the cost isn't high. Riding a motorcycle is quite suitable for cruising around the neighborhood, but it's best to choose quiet roads with little traffic and avoid speeding. Don’t delay renewing the license when it expires. Safety should never be overlooked—always wear a helmet to prevent accidents. Although policies have changed, the rules remain the same, with the core focus on standardized driving to ensure pedestrian safety. With the license in hand, there’s no need to worry—it’s perfectly suitable for daily use.

I ride my motorcycle to the subway station every day and it's super enjoyable. The E license is for two-wheeled motorcycles like mine, while the D license is for three-wheeled ones, like those used by delivery guys. Both fall under the motorcycle license category and don't conflict. Always check the fuel tank before riding to avoid breaking down halfway. Getting licensed takes some time but it's worth it, with a validity period of six years. I love riding motorcycles—they're eco-friendly, fuel-efficient, and super efficient for dodging traffic jams. Safety-wise, follow the rules and never drink and ride—the consequences are serious. Make sure all your documents are in order before hitting the road and don't miss any renewals. If you want to upgrade to bigger vehicles, getting a D license as a backup is safer. For commuters, an E license is affordable and convenient enough.
