What should I do if my driver's license is about to expire?

1. You need to complete all subjects before the expiration date, otherwise the scores of all subjects will be invalidated and you need to re-register for the driver's license test.

2. Article 44 of the Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses stipulates that each subject is tested once. If the test fails, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retake or still fail the retake, the current test will be terminated and the applicant must make a new appointment for the test, but the second and third subject tests must be scheduled ten days later.

If you fail the subject 3 safety and civilized driving common sense test, the road driving skills test you have passed will be valid. During the validity period of the learning driving certificate, the number of scheduled tests for subject 2 and subject 3 road driving skills tests shall not exceed five times. If you still fail the fifth scheduled test, the other subjects you have passed will be invalidated.

The first batch of electronic driver's license pilot cities

The first batch of pilot cities for electronic driver's licenses are Tianjin, Chengdu, and Suzhou. Since September 1, 2021, it has gradually been put into use in 28 cities including Beijing, Shijiazhuang, Changchun, Daqing, Shanghai, Wuxi, Suzhou, Yancheng, Taizhou, Ningbo, Jiaxing, Nanchang, Jinan, Qingdao, Changsha, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Nanning, and Chongqing.

The electronic driver's license is valid nationwide and can be used in multiple application scenarios such as law enforcement management, public services, etc., providing drivers with convenient online "show certificate" and "show code" services.

The electronic driver's license further simplifies the procedures and documents required for handling affairs, improves the convenience of using the driver's license, and makes it more convenient for people to handle affairs and travel.

When the public security department conducts law enforcement inspections, if the driver presents an electronic driver's license, the paper driver's license will no longer be checked, and the driver's license information can be verified online through the law enforcement terminal.
