What are the consequences of renewing an expired driver's license?
1 Answers
When renewing an expired driver's license, the consequences vary depending on the duration of the expiration. If the license has been expired for less than a year, it can be renewed normally. If it has been expired for more than one year but less than three years, the license will be revoked, but it can be renewed by passing the subject one test. If the license has been expired for more than three years, it will be invalidated and cannot be renewed. Penalties for driving with an expired license: Driving a motor vehicle during the expiration period is prohibited and will be treated as driving without a license. If the driver's license has been expired for less than a year, the driver can renew it at any time, but driving on the road will result in a fine of 200 yuan. If the driver's license has been expired for more than one year without renewal, the traffic management department will revoke it. If the expiration period is less than three years, the driver must retake and pass the subject one test to restore their driving qualification. Driving during this period will result in a fine ranging from 200 to 2,000 yuan. If the driver's license has been expired for more than three years, it will be permanently revoked. The driver must retake the driver's license test to drive again. Otherwise, driving on the road will be treated as driving without a license, resulting in a fine of 2,000 yuan and administrative detention for up to 15 days.
