What does having no valid vehicle license mean?
1 Answers
No valid vehicle license refers to situations where the license has expired, is lost or damaged, is legally impounded, or the vehicle type does not match the permitted driving category. Expired license: Possession of a vehicle license that has exceeded its validity period. Except for licenses that are permanently valid, all vehicle licenses have a definite validity period. Driving with a license that has expired and has not been legally renewed is considered as having no valid vehicle license. Lost or damaged: Possession of a vehicle license that is within its validity period but is lost or damaged. According to Article 28 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," driving a vehicle with a lost or damaged license is prohibited, hence driving under such circumstances is considered as having no valid vehicle license. Legally impounded: According to Article 28 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," driving a vehicle while the license is legally impounded or suspended is prohibited, hence driving under such circumstances is considered as having no valid vehicle license. Vehicle type mismatch: For example, if the license type is C1, but the insured drives a large passenger vehicle (which requires an A1 type license), this situation is also considered as having no valid vehicle license.
