Where to Get the Novice Driver Sticker?

Novice driver stickers are generally available at the respective automotive training schools. Here are some important considerations during the probationary period of a driver's license: Requirement for Highway Driving: During the probationary period, drivers are not allowed to drive on highways alone. If a probationary driver operates a motor vehicle on a highway, they must be accompanied by a licensed driver who has held a driver's license for the same or higher vehicle class for at least three years. The accompanying driver should sit in the front passenger seat to provide guidance. Failure to have a qualified accompanying driver may result in fines. Displaying the Novice Driver Sticker: It is mandatory to display the novice driver sticker during the probationary period. Even when borrowing or renting a car, the sticker must be properly affixed as required by regulations. Driving without the sticker is not permitted. Accumulating 12 Penalty Points: Accumulating 12 penalty points will require retaking the driving tests. While it is possible to receive penalty points during the probationary period, extra caution is advised to avoid accumulating 12 points. If a probationary driver accumulates 12 points, their driver's license will be revoked, requiring them to reapply and retake all driving tests from the beginning (Theory Test, Practical Test, and Road Test).

Back when I just got my driver's license, I needed to get a probationary driver decal for my car ASAP. The easiest way was to go to the driving school - just bring your ID and license copy to the front desk, pay ten yuan, and you're set. Don't take this decal lightly; it must be prominently displayed on the rear window to prevent tailgating. New drivers tend to be nervous, and having this reminder for following vehicles to slow down gives some peace of mind. During the one-year probation period, seeing that decal every time I drove reminded me to observe more and speed less - safety first. Once I forgot to display it and got pulled over by police who gave me a stern lecture plus a 100-yuan fine and penalty points - totally not worth it. My advice: get it done right after passing the test, don't procrastinate.

Back when my buddy just bought his car, he was in a hurry to get the 'New Driver' sticker and rushed to the DMV to get it done. Actually, buying it online is much quicker—just search for 'New Driver Sticker' on Taobao, order a few, and they're cheap, practical, and delivered to your doorstep. Once you stick it on, don't slack off—make sure it's firmly attached, as it could cause trouble if it falls off. Take the new driver period seriously; this sticker isn't just about following the law—it also helps reduce accidents. If you're caught without it by traffic police, points and fines are the least of your worries—insurance might even deny a claim in case of a collision. Having driven for years, I advise new drivers to stay calm—getting home safely is the real skill.

A few days ago, I helped my neighbor pick up a probationary driver sign at the DMV. With just a driver's license and ID card, I got it done at the counter with minimal or no fee. For convenience, you can also buy it online with more options and lower prices. Once affixed, drive extra carefully as the accident rate is high during the novice period. This sign reminds others that you're still learning. Related advice: maintain distance, drive slowly, avoid peak hours, remember to remove it after probation, and don't leave old signs to mislead.

By the tenth year and up to the fifteenth year, when the vehicle has traveled approximately 600,000 kilometers, it will be guided to be scrapped. Exempted vehicles are those that are exempt from the on-site motor vehicle inspection. The annual inspection can be processed directly by noting it on the relevant vehicle documents.
