What is the minimum age to apply for a driver's license?

[VonClaire]

Individuals aged 18 and above, and below 70 can apply for a driver's license. Here is some knowledge about driver's licenses: 1. Examination content: The test subjects include traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving). Prior to each subject examination, an appointment must be made (special circumstances can be scheduled through the driving test green channel), and the test is taken after the appointment. 2. License renewal time: If a motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 points in any scoring period during the six-year validity period of the motor vehicle driver's license, they can renew it for a ten-year validity period; if they have not accumulated 12 points in any scoring period during the ten-year validity period of the motor vehicle driver's license, they can renew it for a long-term valid motor vehicle driver's license.

To be honest, getting a driver's license depends on the situation. For regular passenger cars (C1 and C2 licenses), you must be at least 18 years old. Many people don't know that three-wheeled motorcycles and regular motorcycles also require you to be 18. This age threshold is mainly because you're legally an adult at 18 and can bear corresponding responsibilities. I remember my cousin dragged me to the driving school to sign up right after his 18th birthday—young people are always eager to get behind the wheel. However, if you want to drive buses or large trucks, it's not so simple. Those requiring a Class B license need you to be at least 20 years old. For even larger vehicles like trailers (Class A2 license), you have to wait until you're 22. Also, a reminder to minors: don't secretly drive your family's car—insurance won't cover any accidents if you do.

The age restrictions for obtaining a driver's license are quite interesting. For regular private cars, you can apply at the age of 18. People in their thirties or forties like us might not remember clearly, but we notice these details when children around us get their licenses. Interestingly, you can get a motorcycle license (D-class) at 16, two years earlier than for cars. If you want to drive a medium-sized bus, you must wait until you're 21, while large trucks with trailers require you to be 22. There are also time requirements for additional licenses—for example, you must hold a car license for at least one year before applying for a motorcycle license. I've noticed many people get their licenses in their forties, which is perfectly fine as long as they meet the physical requirements. The key is to learn through a proper driving school, as safe driving requires systematic training.

You can get a small car license at 18, a medium-sized bus license at 20, and a tractor license at 22—just remember these key age points. Motorcycles can be licensed separately at 16, but regular private cars require adulthood. Some parents arrange driving tests right after their children's college entrance exams, as summer vacation offers the most free time. Elderly folks needn't worry about age—my 60-year-old neighbor just got his license and now drives his grandson daily. Note that those over 70 must submit an annual health report to keep their license valid. Those with poor eyesight or color blindness may face restrictions, so it's best to confirm eligibility before signing up.
