Mainly include vision tests and color blindness tests, along with several other items such as grip strength, deep squat stand-ups, blood pressure, hearing, and electrocardiogram. Below are the relevant details: 1. Article 57: The motor vehicle driver should apply for license renewal at the vehicle management office of the license issuing location or elsewhere within 90 days before the expiration of the motor vehicle driver's license. 2. Physical condition certificate: A certificate of physical condition issued by a medical institution at or above the county level or the regimental level of the armed forces. For those applying for a special small automatic passenger vehicle for the disabled, a certificate of physical condition issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority should be submitted.
My experience with the C1 driver's license renewal medical check after six years was quite straightforward. The physical examination is usually conducted at hospitals or medical centers designated by the vehicle management office, and you need to bring your ID card and a copy of your driver's license. The main items include vision testing, where corrected vision must reach around 5.0, and you can't wear the wrong glasses; there's also a color blindness test to check for red-green color blindness, which is crucial because you need to clearly see traffic signals. Additionally, hearing and limb mobility functions must pass, such as raising hands and rotating feet in circles, ensuring smooth operation of the steering wheel while driving. The whole process is simple and takes just over ten minutes, costing a few dozen yuan. At the time, my vision wasn't great, so I quickly got a new pair of glasses to pass. After renewing my license, I developed a habit of regularly checking my eyes, avoiding late nights staring at mobile screens, making driving safer.
