Here is an introduction about obtaining a driver's license: 1. According to Article 38 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses': Applicants who learn to drive on training grounds and roads must obtain a learning-to-drive certificate as required. The learning-to-drive certificate is valid for three years, and applicants must complete the subject two and subject three tests within the validity period. If the tests are not completed within the validity period, the passed subjects will be invalidated. 2. Learning-to-drive certificate: It can be in paper or electronic form, with both forms having equal validity. Applicants can print or download the learning-to-drive certificate through the internet traffic safety comprehensive service management platform.

I think signing up for a driving school is pretty straightforward, but I still did some preparation when I enrolled last year. Mainly, I brought my original valid ID card, and I had to personally go to the driving school's front desk to fill out the forms. Then, I remembered to get a physical exam, usually done at a designated hospital to check vision and hearing, and obtain a health certificate, which doesn’t cost much. I also prepared a few one-inch photos—it’s best to take ID photos in advance to avoid delays. For tuition, I brought cash or used mobile payment. Prices vary a lot between different driving schools, so it’s good to start with a lower-priced class. After enrollment, they arrange theory lessons and practical training. I recommend booking sessions early and practicing basic skills during the learning period, not just focusing on exam content—that way, you’ll learn faster.

As a parent, I made a checklist before enrolling my child: Guardians accompanying the child must bring the household register or ID card to prove the child is over 18 years old. My kid just turned one and already went to the driving school. A physical examination is essential, preferably scheduled at a less crowded hospital in the morning, taking just 10 minutes to complete. Prepare several extra photos just in case, as some driving schools may require an electronic version for upload. Regarding tuition fees, after comparing several options, I chose a well-reputed package that includes textbook fees, costing around 3,000 yuan. After enrollment, it's best to keep track of the child's learning progress and remind them to pay attention in theory classes instead of playing with their phone, with road safety being the top priority.

Hey buddy, signing up for driving school isn't as complicated as you might think. I just brought three things: a valid ID, a medical check-up form from the community hospital confirming my eyes and ears are fine, and two one-inch blue background photos. When paying the tuition, remember to compare prices to avoid being overcharged—city driving schools usually charge between 2000 to 4000 yuan. After signing the registration form, they'll schedule the theoretical driving test right away. Just go through the book a few times, stay calm when driving, and schedule more practice sessions to pass the test sooner.
