Relaxed physical requirements: Individuals with monocular vision impairment, three intact fingers on the left hand and a complete right palm, or missing or non-functional right or both lower limbs but capable of sitting independently and meeting upper limb requirements can apply for a driver's license. 3. Cross-region application: First-time applicants can apply for a motor vehicle driver's license at their temporary residence. 4. Learning to drive certificate: After passing the subject one test, the vehicle management office will issue a learning to drive certificate, which must be carried during subsequent subject two and three training (both paper and electronic versions are acceptable). 5.

Simultaneous scheduling of subjects two and three: After passing subject one, applicants can schedule either subject two or three. 7.

Cancellation of small car night tests: The 20% small car night test requirement is abolished, replaced by daytime simulations, with night light usage knowledge incorporated into subject three's safety and civics test. 9. Caution during probation: Any traffic violation during the probation period, regardless of when it is processed, will result in license revocation if 12 points are accumulated. 10. Clarification of training violations: Instructors are responsible for violations such as not following prescribed routes or times for training, failing to display or attach training identifiers, etc.
