After logging into the "Traffic Management 12123" APP, go to [Business Center] → [Renew Expired Driver's License] to enter the business process for renewing an expired driver's license. On the driver information confirmation page, confirm details including name, driver's license number, expiration date, etc. Choose between self-pickup or mailing options. Then follow the prompts step by step to complete the process.
I have extensive experience renewing my driver's license while working in another city. First, you need to confirm local requirements - typically bring your ID card, old driver's license, local residence permit or temporary residence certificate, and medical report (can be done at designated hospitals). Prepare a photo too. Then download the Traffic Management 12123 App to book an appointment, select the nearest vehicle management office, and submit materials on-site as scheduled. After staff review, you'll get the new license in 1-2 days. I recommend going early on weekdays when it's less crowded for faster service, avoiding afternoon peaks. The whole process takes half a day with low costs (mainly medical checkup for tens of yuan). Double-check all materials to avoid wasted trips - it's convenient and safe to drive with complete documentation.
Renewing your driver's license in another city isn't difficult. I did it last time I was on a business trip. Just go to the local vehicle management office with your ID card, driver's license, and proof of address like a rental contract. Booking online in advance makes it simpler. Fill out forms, get a medical checkup and photo taken there, then submit the materials and wait for notification. The whole process takes about one or two hours, and the cost is affordable, just a few dozen yuan. I prefer going to the vehicle management office in the morning when it's less crowded and more efficient, usually finishing before noon. A quick tip: if you forget to book in advance, you can still get a number on-site, but it might take longer. Keeping your license updated ensures legal driving and avoids fines if checked. The sooner you handle it, the less hassle later.
