Oh, to renew your driver's license in Zhoukou, just go directly to the Vehicle Management Office. I've renewed mine there several times. It's mainly the Vehicle Management Office of the Traffic Police Brigade under the Zhoukou Public Security Bureau, usually located near transportation hubs, such as along the main roads in the city. Before renewing, you need to prepare your ID card, old driver's license, and two to three one-inch photos. Don’t forget to get a medical check-up in advance, which can be done at many designated hospitals. Weekdays are more convenient, with operating hours from 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday. It’s best to make an online appointment to save time, as the queues on-site can be very long. The renewal fee is a bit over 100 yuan, and if your documents are incomplete, you might have to make a second trip, which can be a hassle. Before heading out, check the Vehicle Management Office’s official website to confirm any address changes to avoid unnecessary detours. Actually, renewing your license regularly is fundamental to safe driving—don’t delay until it expires and risk a fine.
