If the driver's license expires for 2 days without renewal, it is necessary to renew it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be considered as driving without a license. The following documents and certificates are required for renewal: 1. Identity proof of the motor vehicle driver. 2. Motor vehicle driver's license. 3. A medical certificate issued by a county-level or higher medical institution or a military medical institution at or above the regimental level. Additional information: The renewal time is as follows: 1. Expired for less than one year: can be renewed normally. 2. Expired for more than one year but less than three years: the driver's license will be canceled, but it can be renewed by passing the subject one test. 3. Expired for more than three years: the driver's license will be invalid and cannot be renewed. 4. During the expired period: driving a motor vehicle is not allowed, otherwise it will be treated as driving without a license.
I just started driving not long ago, and this time my driver's license expired for 2 days without renewal, which made me quite nervous. I immediately stopped driving and quickly searched for the process, only to find out that I needed to go to the DMV. I brought my ID card, a 1-inch photo, and a recent medical report, and went to queue up. The service desk staff said that since it hadn't expired for long, I was only fined 50 yuan. After paying, I quickly got my new license. The whole process took less than an hour—simple and fast. I suggest setting a reminder on your phone to avoid waiting until the last day. If you insist on driving and get caught, you might face points deduction, higher fines, or even affect insurance claims. Safety first—don’t let small oversights lead to big troubles. Handle it early to avoid unnecessary stress.
