What does self-taught direct examination for motor vehicles mean?

[LuciaFitz]

Self-taught direct examination refers to individuals applying for a small car or small automatic transmission car driver's license who use their own vehicle equipped with safety auxiliary devices. Under the guidance of a person with safe driving experience and other required conditions, they learn driving skills on routes and at times designated by the traffic management department of the public security authorities, and then directly apply for the driver's license examination. To drive a self-taught direct examination vehicle on the road, the following conditions must be met: 1. Compliance with relevant regulations: It is necessary to comply with the safe driving regulations stipulated by the traffic department, and also have a corresponding or higher-level driver's license for more than 5 years, with no fatal traffic accidents caused and less than 12 demerit points deducted. 2. Instructor: The trainee must have an instructor by their side when driving on the road. Training requires passing the subject one examination, obtaining a learning driving certificate, and receiving a special identifier for learning to drive. The learning driving certificate must be carried while driving, and the special identifier for learning to drive must be placed on the vehicle. 3. Driving scope: The driving must be conducted on roads and at times designated by the management department for learning purposes.

Self-study direct driving test means learning driving knowledge and skills on your own without going through the fixed courses of driving schools, and then directly registering for the exam to get a driver's license. I tried this approach recently and found it quite practical. First, you need to find an experienced driver as a coach or rent a dedicated training car to practice parking, road tests, and other items in designated areas. Arranging your own practice time is flexible, unlike driving schools where you have to follow a schedule. However, there are also many challenges, such as having to buy traffic rule books and practice questions on your own, and going through the online appointment process before the exam. I used the official app to handle everything. The whole process saved money, costing only about one or two thousand yuan, which is half the price of driving schools, but it requires higher self-discipline. You can’t be careless during practice to avoid failing the exam. Now, I drive my own car around the city and feel that this self-study method is quite suitable for busy people. Of course, beginners should find a professional coach for safety guidance and not take risks by driving on the road right away.

I understand that the self-study direct examination refers to the new government policy that allows us to bypass driving schools and directly obtain a motor vehicle driver's license. The specific process is quite simple: first, register an account on the vehicle management office website and submit an application, then find a training vehicle or ask relatives and friends to act as coaches to practice skills at designated training grounds. Once proficient, you can schedule the theoretical and road tests. This method saves the high costs and long waiting times associated with traditional driving schools, which I think is a good convenience for the public. Of course, the examination standards have not been relaxed; you still need to strictly pass subjects one, two, and three, such as reversing and turning, which require thorough practice. It's important to note that during self-study, a dual-control training vehicle must be used to ensure safety, otherwise, violations will be penalized. I think this policy encourages people to actively learn driving and reduces financial burdens, making it suitable for those on a tight budget to try.

I'm planning to get my driver's license, and self-directed learning means studying all the driving content on my own without enrolling in a class, then directly signing up for the exam. I'm figuring out how to start, like watching online tutorials to study traffic rules and renting a car on weekends to practice starting and stopping in a safe area. However, there are quite a few challenges, such as finding a suitable instructor, which requires effort. Fortunately, there are now sharing platforms where I can rent cars and borrow equipment, making it easier to practice. This way of learning can save a lot of money and time, but I need to arrange everything myself and not delay my progress.

The essence of self-study direct examination lies in preparing a qualified training vehicle and learning resources independently, without relying on driving school institutions. After completing driving training on your own, you can directly take the exam to obtain a driver's license. Key steps include designating a training site, practicing skills such as reverse parking and road test items, and preparing theoretical learning materials for traffic regulations. The exam covers computer-based questions and actual driving operations. Throughout the process, you are responsible for ensuring that the training vehicle meets safety regulations, and the accompanying trainer must have a valid driver's license qualification; otherwise, the exam may be affected. I believe this method is suitable for experienced individuals with strong learning abilities to try.
