You can renew your driver's license at the Shangyu Vehicle Management Office. Specifically, it's located at the Vehicle Management Office of the Traffic Police Brigade in Shangyu District. 1. If your driver's license has been expired for a few days but less than one year: You can bring your ID card, driver's license, physical condition certificate, driver's license photo, and other required documents to the local Public Security Traffic Police Vehicle Management Office to apply for a license renewal following the normal expiration renewal process. 2. According to Article 67, Paragraph 1, Item 7 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123): If a driver's license has been expired for more than one year without renewal, the Vehicle Management Office shall cancel the motor vehicle driver's license. However, Paragraph 3 of Article 67 stipulates that if the cancellation of the driver's license does not exceed two years, the driver can regain their driving qualification by passing the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test. 3. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": You can apply for a new driver's license 90 days before the expiration date of your current license. Within one year after the expiration date, you can also submit your ID proof, physical condition certificate, driver's license, and other renewal materials to the Public Security Traffic Police Vehicle Management Office to complete the license renewal process.

I just went to Shangyu last week to renew my driver's license at the Shangyu District Vehicle Management Office, located at No. 8 Tiyuchang Road, which is easy to find. If you're driving, just use your phone's navigation app. There are plenty of free parking spaces available. For public transport, Bus No. 3 and No. 8 go directly to the entrance. Remember to bring your original ID card, old driver's license, and a one-inch white background photo. The renewal fee is about 20 yuan. Fill out a form on-site, and you can also take a photo there. The whole process takes less than half an hour. Their business hours are 8:30 to 17:00 on weekdays, with no lunch break. It's recommended to go in the morning when there are fewer people. I also had a medical check-up in advance at the District People's Hospital to get a certificate, saving the hassle of making multiple trips. Overall, it's quite convenient, but it's best to check the latest address on Baidu before heading out in case of any changes.

Having driven for a lifetime, I often advise friends on driver's license matters. In Shangyu, license renewal is mainly handled at the Vehicle Management Office, with the location on Stadium Road being particularly noticeable, marked by signage at the entrance. Nowadays, you can also process it online via the Traffic Management 12123 App, which is more efficient—upload your documents and have your license mailed to your home, saving you the trip. However, for first-time renewals or those requiring a medical check-up, an in-person visit is still necessary. Remember to bring your ID card, medical report, and photos. The office is open from Monday to Friday, starting at 9 AM. Going early gets things done faster. I always make a habit of checking the expiry date on the old license to avoid any lapses—safe driving is no trivial matter. For the medical check-up, ensure you visit a certified hospital to meet vision and other standards. Seasoned drivers know it's all about prevention.

Young people prefer using their phones to handle things. For renewing a driver's license, just use the App "Traffic Management 12123". After registering and logging in, select the driver's license service, fill in the information, upload a photo and ID, pay a few dozen yuan for postage online, and the new license will be mailed directly to your home. If you must go in person, the Shangyu Vehicle Management Office is easy to find at No. 8 Stadium Road. Online operations are really fast, and you can track progress, saving time and effort. Some hospitals support issuing medical certificates online. Technology simplifies life, reducing legwork and giving you more time to enjoy. All my friends handled it this way.
