I often drive long distances for deliveries, and the number of cities supporting electronic driver's licenses is quite extensive now. Many first-tier and second-tier cities across the country are covered, including core cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, as well as provincial capitals such as Hangzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing, Tianjin, and Wuhan. The specific list can be checked in the Traffic Management 12123 App—just open the personal center and look for the 'Supported Cities' option to see the latest updates. The advantage is that you don’t need to carry a physical license while driving; a quick scan of the QR code handles inspections, saving a lot of hassle. However, some smaller counties or rural areas might not yet be covered, so it’s best to confirm whether your destination supports the electronic version before heading out to avoid issues. I always check the App before driving a new route to ensure everything’s in order. These cities have gradually been added since the 2022 pilot program, and I’ve heard the coverage is still expanding.

As a young tech enthusiast, I'm thrilled that the electronic driver's license is now widely available, mainly in popular cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Shenzhen. It's super convenient after activation via the Traffic Management 121 App - just scan the QR code for instant verification. The biggest advantage is never worrying about forgetting your physical license, making commutes or trips much easier. During my recent Shanghai trip, the digital version saved me time and hassle. However, be aware that not all small towns have adopted it yet, especially some remote counties. I recommend checking the updated coverage list in the App beforehand to avoid awkward situations. With digitalization advancing, more cities are joining the system, and full nationwide coverage might be achievable soon.

I just got my driver's license and have experienced the convenience of the electronic driving license. The service is available in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, as well as popular locations such as Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Wuhan. Simply register and activate it on the 12123 App, then scan the QR code for identity verification when using it. The benefits include not having to carry a physical license and reducing the risk of loss. However, note that not every city supports it, especially smaller towns may not have it activated yet. I recommend keeping an eye on App updates to ensure hassle-free travel.

When work gets busy and frequent business trips are required, the cities where electronic driver's licenses are available cover many locations, including first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, as well as second-tier hubs such as Chengdu, Chongqing, and Hangzhou. After activation via the 121App, scanning the QR code for verification is highly efficient. The benefit is saving time, especially during peak traffic jams when quick passage through checkpoints is needed. However, the promotion progress varies; for example, some third- and fourth-tier cities are still in the pilot phase, so it's best to check the App's list before traveling. These cities span from south to north, with several new provinces added in 2023, making it highly practical—just remember to update the App regularly.

As a middle-aged and elderly person adapting to new things, the cities where electronic driver's licenses are available mainly include major cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, and Chengdu, and many people have started using them. The activation process is simple, just operate on the 121 App, and the QR code verification is convenient and fast. The advantage is carrying fewer documents reduces the burden, but some non-urban areas like towns and villages may not have it activated yet, so it's advisable to check in advance. In the early stages of promotion, there were few pilot programs, but now the coverage is extensive. Adapting takes time, but the experience is quite good. I'm used to carrying a paper backup just in case.
