Driver's license renewal requires the original ID card, a copy of the ID card, the original driver's license, a copy of the driver's license, and three one-inch white-background color-printed ID photos. If submitting online, a medical examination certificate is also required. For an in-person renewal at the vehicle management office, you need to fill out the motor vehicle driver's license application form and complete the medical examination form after the on-site medical check. A driver's license is a certification document issued by the government's transportation department to individuals who meet the driving qualifications, usually in the form of a card. The validity period of a driver's license is 6 years, 10 years, or long-term. Drivers should apply for renewal at the vehicle management office within 90 days before the expiration of their driver's license.

I've renewed my driver's license several times, and the basic materials are always the same: my original ID card and its copy, the old driver's license booklet, and about three recent one-inch bareheaded photos. Don't forget to get a physical exam, which must be done at designated hospitals or the vehicle management office to check vision, hearing, and other physical conditions, and bring the physical examination certificate form. Filling out the application form is quite simple, and in some places, you can do it on-site or use a self-service machine. I remember last time I didn’t bring a copy, and it took a long time to queue for photocopying on-site, so it's better to prepare in advance to save trouble. Booking an appointment ahead of time is even more convenient, and now it can all be done via a mobile app. After renewal, double-check the new license information to avoid any mistakes that could cause trouble when driving later. With all the materials ready, you can get it the same day, which is quite convenient.

For driver's license renewal, you need to bring all required materials. I remember to bring the original ID card, one photocopy, the old driver's license, and several one-inch photos. A medical examination certificate is mandatory - get your vision tested at a certified hospital and submit the report. Don't forget to fill out the application form during the process, and be careful not to mix up the photo size requirements. On my first attempt, I didn't make an appointment and had to wait for hours due to the crowd. I recommend going on weekday mornings or booking online for convenience. Bring some cash as there might be processing fees. With all materials prepared, the procedure goes quickly. After getting your new license, remember safety comes first when driving - don't become complacent just because you've renewed it.

When renewing my driver's license, I just need to bring my ID card, old license, and photos, but a physical examination report is mandatory. Prepare three one-inch bareheaded photos. The doctor checks vision very thoroughly, as safety comes first. With all materials ready, the process is completed on the spot and very quick.

What are the requirements for new drivers on the highway?

When driving on the highway, a passenger with at least three years of driving experience must accompany the new driver in the front seat. Here are some relevant tips: 1. Speed: You don't need to drive too fast, but try to maintain a steady speed. On roads with a speed limit of 100, you can keep your speed between 80-90, as this range is more manageable for new drivers. On roads with a speed limit of 120, maintain a speed of 90-100, as these roads usually have better conditions. Stay in the middle lane and try to drive at a constant speed. 2. Following too closely: New drivers may not react well to emergencies or handle them effectively, so it's safer to keep a distance of about 200 meters from the vehicle in front. Additionally, avoid following large vehicles, as they can obstruct your view of the road ahead.

If the vehicle exceeds the speed limit by more than 20% but less than 50%, the driver will be penalized with 6 demerit points.

Why is the left side of the car body lower than the right side?

The reasons for the left side of the car body being lower than the right side are as follows: 1. There may be a problem with the shock absorber on one side of the car. 2. Or there may be an issue with the tire pressure of the car. Additional information: 1. Introduction to shock absorbers: Shock absorbers are wear-prone parts during car use. The performance of the shock absorbers directly affects the smoothness of the car's ride and the lifespan of other components, so the shock absorbers should always be kept in good working condition. 2. The reason for installing shock absorbers: To quickly dampen the vibration between the frame and the body, and to improve the smoothness and comfort of the car's ride, shock absorbers are generally installed on the car's suspension system. The most widely used type in cars is the double-acting telescopic shock absorber.
