2 Answers
The physical examination items for the driver's license annual review do not necessarily have to be conducted at a hospital in the place where the license was issued. Medical institutions at or above the county level in other locations are also acceptable. However, it is important to note that the validity period of the physical examination report is six months, so timely annual review and physical examination should be ensured. Below are the details regarding the physical examination items for the driver's license annual review: 1. Height: Applicants for large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, large trucks, and trolleybuses must be at least 155 cm tall; applicants for medium-sized passenger vehicles must be at least 150 cm tall. 2. Vision: Applicants for large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, trolleybuses, or trams must have uncorrected or corrected visual acuity of at least 5.0 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart and must not be colorblind. 3. Hearing: Applicants must be able to discern the direction of sound sources with each ear at a distance of 50 cm from the fork. 4. Upper Limbs: Both thumbs must be intact, and each hand must have at least three other fingers intact, with normal limb and finger movement functions.
The annual driver's license physical examination is usually conducted at locations designated by the public security authorities. I always choose the physical examination department of large hospitals in the city, where the equipment is complete and the process is fast. You need to bring your ID card and a copy of your current driver's license in advance. Once you arrive, register and queue up. The examination mainly includes vision, color discrimination, and hearing tests to ensure you can see road signs clearly and hear horn sounds while driving. The whole process takes less than half an hour and costs only a few dozen yuan. It is recommended to go at 8 a.m. when there are fewer people and higher efficiency. Don’t forget to make an appointment. Use mobile apps like "Traffic Management 12123" to check local designated locations to avoid a wasted trip. This physical examination is quite important as it helps us identify potential issues early, such as declining vision, so we can get glasses in time. Safety always comes first.
