The process for renewing a driver's license upon expiration is as follows: The motor vehicle driver must submit the required materials to the vehicle management office where the driver's license was originally issued to apply for renewal. The vehicle management office will process the renewal within one working day after approval. Materials required for renewal: Bring two copies of ID card, two recent 1-inch color photos without headwear, original ID card, original driver's license, and a medical examination certificate from a county-level or above hospital (free medical examination is also available at the vehicle management office). In addition to applying for renewal at the vehicle management office, you can also apply for renewal through the following methods: Renewal via the "Traffic Management 12123" APP. Download the "Traffic Management 12123" APP, then select Service Center -- Expiration Renewal Service -- Fill in the information. The new license is usually delivered by mail. Visit the "Police-Medical-Post" service point at a postal business hall to complete the renewal process. The entire process, from registration to medical examination and new license production, takes only half an hour. Currently, only a few cities have launched this service, such as Hangzhou.

My last experience with driver's license renewal upon expiration was quite memorable. I received an SMS reminder from the DMV three months in advance and acted promptly. First, I went to a designated hospital for a medical check-up, mainly for vision and color recognition tests, which took just a few minutes and was very simple. Armed with my ID card, old driver's license, and a one-inch color photo, I headed straight to the local DMV. The place was crowded, but thanks to online appointment scheduling, I avoided peak hours and queued directly at the counter. After filling out an application form and paying the processing fee, my new license was issued quickly. The whole process was smooth and took about two hours. I recommend everyone to renew it in advance and not delay, as driving with an expired license can lead to many troubles—fines, insurance invalidation, and even affecting your safety record. At the DMV, I also took the opportunity to learn about new regulations and picked up some driving tips, which was great.

What to Do When a Car Rolls Over?

Solutions for when a car rolls over: 1. Stay calm and avoid making fatal mistakes due to excessive panic; 2. Immediately turn off the engine to prevent hazards such as fire or explosion; 3. Adjust your position, unbuckle the seatbelt, and lower your body. If you cannot open the door, you can choose to break the side window to escape. When striking the side window, aim for the edges of the glass rather than the center; 4. After escaping, do not rush out of the car recklessly. First, observe the surroundings and ensure it is safe before exiting, especially on highways. Make sure to move outside the guardrail and stay as far away from the accident scene as possible to ensure your safety and avoid secondary accidents.

Can You Shift from D to S Gear While Driving an Automatic Car?

Automatic cars can shift from D to S gear while driving without the need to press the brake or come to a stop. The D gear is the drive gear, where the vehicle prioritizes comfort and fuel efficiency. The S gear is the sport mode, which focuses on high performance. When shifted into S gear, the transmission delays upshifting to allow the engine to deliver greater power. Situations where S gear is not suitable include: 1. High-speed driving is not ideal for S gear, as it is designed to downshift for acceleration, leading to mismatched speed and RPM, increased noise, and higher fuel consumption; 2. Coasting is not recommended in S gear, as it can cause significant wear and tear on the transmission in a short period.
