What types of vehicles can a Class D license drive?

[DelKimberly]

A Class D license allows you to drive ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles and the types of vehicles permitted by Class E and Class F driver's licenses. According to the relevant regulations of the public security traffic management authorities, in some second- and third-tier cities where motorcycles are not banned, you can register for the Class D license test at the local vehicle management office. Requirements for applying for a Class D license: 1. Chinese citizens who are at least 18 years old and pass the physical examination; 2. You can only apply for the license in your registered residence area, and it cannot be processed in another location. The Class D license test consists of four subjects: Subject 1 covers theoretical knowledge about motorcycles. After passing Subject 1, you proceed to Subject 2, which includes tests such as motorcycle slalom and curve driving. Subject 3 is taken simultaneously with Subject 2 and involves driving along a route specified by the examiner. Subject 4 covers topics such as civilized driving and traffic rules.

In China, the Class D driver's license is specifically designed for three-wheeled motorcycles. Holding a Class D license allows you to operate ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, such as common delivery trikes or cargo-carrying models, but it does not permit driving any cars or trucks. I chose this license when I got my driver's license because the test is relatively simpler, focusing more on balance and handling skills, unlike the more complex car driver's license. When riding a three-wheeler, safety is paramount, especially in urban areas. Adhering to traffic laws is crucial, as speeding or violations can easily lead to accidents.

As an experienced rider with several years on three-wheelers, the D license allows me to drive various trike models like Jialing or Zongshen, perfect for courier work or street vending. These bikes have a more wobbly feel, so mastering steering and braking is essential. Always keep your lights on for night rides. I also recommend beginners find a mentor before hitting the road—tricycles' higher center of gravity increases rollover risk. Safety comes first.

A D-class license allows you to drive three-wheeled motorcycles, simply put, like those electric or gasoline-powered trikes used for food delivery, but it does not permit driving cars. To obtain this license, you need to attend a driving school for a few days, pass both a written test and a practical exam, and the cost is relatively low. It's quite practical for daily use, being fuel-efficient and handy, but avoid overloading or modifying the vehicle, as violations can result in fines.
