Driver's license replacement is processed at the vehicle management office. More information about driver's license replacement is as follows: 1. To replace a driver's license, the original and photocopy of the identity proof of the vehicle owner are required. If handled by an agent, the original and photocopy of the agent's identity proof must also be submitted (if the agent is a unit, the original and photocopy of the handler's identity proof and the original written authorization from the vehicle owner are additionally required). 2. Bring all the materials to the vehicle management office for registration and replacement. If you sell a used car to someone else, the driver's license needs to be replaced at this time. For replacing the driver's license, you will need the motor vehicle license application form, the identity proof of the vehicle owner, and the original motor vehicle driver's license.

I just helped a friend with the renewal of the vehicle license, and it's actually quite simple—just go to the local DMV to handle it. As a working professional with a busy schedule, I recommend making an online appointment first to avoid the hassle of queuing. Bring your ID card, the original old vehicle license, and a couple of photos, then head straight to the counter. The process isn't too complicated—just fill out a form, and the whole thing takes about an hour. Also, remember to check that your vehicle has no outstanding violations, or you might get stuck. Driving with a renewed license gives peace of mind since it's a legal document. If you're short on time, some cities offer agency services for a bit more money but with added convenience. Personally, I always choose weekdays when it's less crowded—it's more efficient, and don’t wait until the expiration day.

I'm a young person who just got my driver's license. Last time I renewed my vehicle registration, I went to a designated service point at the Traffic Management Bureau. I booked an appointment on the app in advance, took a number as soon as I arrived, and it was really hassle-free. Just needed to bring my ID card and photos, fill out some forms, and the staff were very helpful—the whole process was super quick. After getting the new registration, I double-checked the information to make sure there were no mistakes. Next time, I'll remember to set a reminder so it doesn't expire. By the way, some service points have self-service machines that are open 24/7, which is great for night owls like us—saves time and is super convenient.

As a seasoned driver, I always go to the DMV for license renewal—their service is reliable. Just bring your ID and old license to get it done. The key is not to mess up: make sure your vehicle has no violations to smooth the process. Check the address and required materials in advance to avoid a wasted trip. Driving with the renewed license in your bag gives peace of mind.

As a homemaker, I often handle miscellaneous tasks, and renewing my husband's driving license was one of them. I got it done in one trip to the DMV, but it's best to choose a weekday with fewer people to manage time better. Just bring his original ID card, a copy, and a photo, then fill out a form. After renewal, remind him to keep it in the car for inspection to avoid any issues. Long queues can be frustrating, so avoiding the morning rush hour is the wisest choice.

How long does it take to retake the driving test and get the license back after 12-point deduction for speeding?

It takes about a month to regain the driving license after completing the required study following a 12-point deduction. After accumulating 12 penalty points, drivers must attend a seven-day study session, after which the vehicle management office will arrange a test within 20 days. The shortest total time is 27 days, approximately one month. Below are the relevant details: According to Order No. 139 of the Ministry of Public Security: Article 68: If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 penalty points within a scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall confiscate their motor vehicle driving license. Study requirement: The motor vehicle driver must, within 15 days, attend a seven-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security authority where the driving license was issued or where the violation occurred. After completing the study session, the vehicle management office must conduct a test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. If the test is passed, the penalty points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driving license will be returned. If the test is failed, the driver must continue studying and retake the test. Drivers who refuse to attend the study session or take the test will have their motor vehicle driving license suspended by the traffic management department of the public security authority.

What causes the brake pad noise when the car just starts moving?

When slowly releasing the brake pedal, the engine already has enough power to drive the car forward, but the brake is not fully released. In this case, the moving wheels are held by the brake system, naturally causing abnormal noise, which is a normal phenomenon. Below is relevant information: Manual transmission lifting the brake: When lifting the brake in a manual transmission car, the transmission does not output power, and the vehicle starts when the brake is completely released. For automatic transmission cars, as long as the gear is engaged, the transmission already provides force for the tires to rotate forward, but the vehicle does not move because the brake is pressed. When starting an automatic transmission car, the brake is slowly released. If the brake is released quickly, this sound will not occur. Brake disc and brake pad sticking together due to rust causing noise: This usually happens after driving in the rain or after parking for a long time. The brake disc and brake pad rust and stick together, causing noise when starting the car again. This issue can be resolved by applying butter or special lubricating oil to the connection between the brake pad and the brake caliper. Both the brake disc and brake pad are high-wear items. Each time the brake is applied, these two components rub against each other, leading to wear over time. When the wear is excessive, noise naturally occurs, so regular inspection and replacement are necessary. Typically, brake pads should be replaced every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, while brake discs should be replaced every 100,000 to 120,000 kilometers.

How long does it take for a car to fill with water when submerged?

It depends on the water level. Generally, if the water exceeds the height of the car, it will take about half an hour to fill up. Below is relevant information: Stay calm: If a car accidentally falls into water, many people panic, especially female drivers who may not know what to do and start screaming in the car. While such a reaction is instinctive, it's important to think clearly—panicking and screaming won't help. In fact, it often worsens the situation, causing confusion and making it harder to recall proper emergency measures. The most useful and fundamental action in this scenario is to stay as calm as possible. Take emergency measures: When a car is submerged, the pressure difference between the inside and outside makes it difficult to open the door. If the car hasn't been submerged too deeply, you might still be able to open the door and escape quickly. If the door cannot be opened, the only option is to break the window. When breaking the window, aim for one of its corners—avoid hitting the center, as it is the most difficult part to break due to the force being absorbed by the glass's vibrations.
