Materials required for the driver's license test: Local residents can apply with their household registration, while non-local residents can apply with a residence permit or temporary residence permit (temporary residence certificate). Below is additional information: 1. Medical examination items: Electrocardiogram, blood pressure, height, weight, hearing, grip strength, back strength, vision, and color vision. 2. Application requirements: Applicants must be between 18-70 years old, have uncorrected or corrected visual acuity of at least 4.9 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart, no red-green color blindness, hearing-impaired individuals must wear hearing aids, pass the medical examination, and hold the "Motor Vehicle Driver Physical Condition Certificate" indicating a passed medical examination.

I remember bringing quite a complete set of documents when I last applied for my driver's license: the original and a copy of my ID card must be brought along to verify your identity; the medical examination report needs to be done at a qualified hospital, usually checking if your vision and hearing meet the standards—don't worry about the hassle, community hospitals can handle it. Also, bring two recent passport-sized photos without hats, preferably wearing dark-colored clothes to look formal. The application form can be filled out at the vehicle management office. I didn't bring a pen last time and wasted half an hour going back to get one, so I suggest preparing in advance. The whole process isn't complicated at all. With all the materials ready, it can be done in a morning. After getting the license, commuting to work by car became much more convenient.

Last year, as a novice, I went through the driver's license application process quite smoothly: I took a copy of my ID card for a medical check-up at the hospital, felt a bit nervous during the vision test but passed easily; I used two 1-inch bareheaded photos, opting for a formal look to appear sharp. At the vehicle management office, I filled out the form with my personal details, making sure not to miss any details. I recommend going early to avoid peak hours—fewer people mean faster processing, and the fee is just a few dozen yuan, payable in cash or via WeChat. After getting my license, I felt a little excitement driving on the highway for the first time—practice experience is really important.

Key materials for getting a driver's license are not many: Don't forget to make a copy of your original ID card; the medical report must be obtained from a hospital—last time I specifically chose the morning when there were fewer people for the check-up; prepare one or two bareheaded photos, which can be taken with a phone and then printed; the application form is filled out at the DMV, so bring a pen to avoid borrowing one. The whole process isn't as long as imagined, and can be done in one go. Having all materials ready is the most worry-free, and with the license in hand, driving to pick up and drop off kids is safe and reliable.

When getting a driver's license for my child, I first prepared the materials: his ID card copy was kept ready; took him to the hospital for a medical check-up report, reminding him not to be nervous during the vision test; two photos were taken clearly, and I chose a blue background for a more formal look; filled out the application form at the DMV patiently. Reminded to include additional items, such as the driving learner's certificate. The medical check-up was simple but shouldn't be delayed, and we celebrated after completion. The whole process took half a day, saving energy for other tasks.
