What to Do When the Validity Period of the Driving License's Supplementary Page Expires?
2 Answers
If the inspection validity period of the supplementary page of the driving license has expired, it needs to be replaced. Below is an introduction to the renewal of an expired driving license: 1. Rules for renewing an expired driving license: If the driving license has been expired for less than one year, you can apply for renewal at the local vehicle management office of the public security traffic police by submitting required documents such as ID card, driving license, physical condition certificate, and driving license photos. 2. Required documents for renewal: "Motor Vehicle Driving License Application Form," which must be signed by the applicant; the original driving license; the identity proof of the driver (original and copy); if the applicant cannot be present, a jointly signed application form by the applicant and the agent, as well as the identity proofs of both (original and copy), etc., must be submitted.
That morning I was driving to work when a traffic officer pulled me over to check my documents. To my shock, I discovered the validity period on the vehicle license supplement page had expired - a full two weeks overdue without me noticing! The officer gave me a lecture, issued a ticket, and deducted one point from my license. After returning home, I immediately called 122 to contact the DMV and learned I had to first take the car to an inspection station for annual testing. After queuing for two hours with the vehicle, ID card, and insurance policy, I completed the inspection, then went to the DMV counter to fill forms, pay fees, and get a new certificate. Now I keep the new supplement page securely with my documents and check the dates monthly. I advise everyone not to be as careless as I was - never drive with an expired supplement page, as getting caught means fines, points, and major hassle.
