Below are the relevant new regulations regarding the driver's license test: 1. Relaxation of age restrictions: The new regulations have relaxed the age limit for small cars and small automatic transmission car driver's licenses, removing the upper age limit of 70 years old. Applicants aged 70 and above must undergo tests for memory, judgment, and reaction ability. 2. Lowering of the minimum age for applying for a driver's license: The minimum age for applying for large passenger vehicle and tractor driver's licenses has been adjusted from the original 26 and 24 years old to 22 years old. Legal basis: Article 19 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China' states that driving a motor vehicle requires obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license in accordance with the law. Applicants for a motor vehicle driver's license must meet the driving license conditions prescribed by the public security department of the State Council; after passing the examination, the traffic management department of the public security organ will issue the corresponding category of motor vehicle driver's license. Holders of foreign motor vehicle driver's licenses who meet the driving license conditions prescribed by the public security department of the State Council and pass the assessment by the traffic management department of the public security organ may be issued a Chinese motor vehicle driver's license.
