Taking Shanghai as an example, the specific process for adding an E-class license to a C1 driver's license is as follows: Procedure for Adding Permitted Driving Types: The applicant should bring the required materials to a local motor vehicle driver training institution to register. The institution will then handle the procedure for adding permitted driving types at the vehicle management office in the respective jurisdiction. Completion of Subject Tests Within the Validity Period: After the applicant passes the Subject 1 test, the vehicle management office will issue a "Learning to Drive Certificate" (valid for three years) within one working day. The applicant must complete Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests within the validity period. If the tests are not completed within the validity period, the passed subject results will be invalidated. Receipt of the Motor Vehicle Driver's License: After the applicant sequentially passes Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3 tests, the vehicle management office will produce the motor vehicle driver's license within one working day. The applicant will then receive education on safe and civilized driving common sense and traffic accident case warnings, participate in a pre-license oath ceremony, and be issued the motor vehicle driver's license.
Let me share the entire process of adding a Class E motorcycle license. It's actually quite simple. First, make sure you've held a C1 or similar license for at least one year, otherwise you can't apply. Then enroll at a certified driving school, bringing your ID card and a copy of your current license - they'll arrange the training. The training consists of theory and practical lessons: theory covers traffic rules and motorcycle maintenance, while practical focuses on riding skills, obstacle navigation and parking. The test has two parts: a computer-based theory exam (easy if you study) and a road test on a designated course evaluating starting, turning and parking maneuvers. I passed on first attempt, costing about 2,000 RMB including tuition and exam fees. The whole process took two weeks with weekday evening training and weekend exams. Stay calm, practice balancing, and you'll be fine. After getting the new license, you'll enjoy much greater riding freedom.
