In this era of increasing attention to traffic safety, it is especially important to have legal driving qualifications. For many friends who hold a C1 driver's license, there may always be a small wish in their hearts - that is, to be able to ride a handsome motorcycle and enjoy the thrill of speeding. But you know what? To legally drive a motorcycle, you need some extra preparation in addition to the love of the motorcycle itself. Today, let's talk about how to increase the number of drivers from a car C1 license to a motorcycle D license, and what to pay attention to in the process.
Basic conditions for additional driving
First of all, let's take a look at the basic conditions for adding a D license. If you already hold a C1 license, you must wait until the end of the C1 license probationary period and have not received 12 demerit points in the previous demerit period to be eligible to apply for an additional D. In addition, there is a mandatory age requirement, and applicants must be between the ages of 18 and 70.
Choose how to add a driver
There are two main ways to increase the number of D licenses: one is to register through a driving school; The second is to go directly to the DMV to register. If you choose to enroll through a driving school, there may be more guidance and services, but the cost is relatively high. If you choose to register directly at the DMV, the fee is lower, but you may need to solve some problems yourself. Either way, you'll need to undergo a medical exam, study, and take an exam.
A detailed explanation of the exam process
Next comes the most crucial part – the exam process. For those who hold a C1 driver's license, it is usually necessary to take the test of subject 1, subject 2, subject 3 and subject 4 to obtain a D license.
Module 1: Theory test, which tests your knowledge of traffic rules;
Subject 2: Difficulties in the practical examination, including fixed-point parking, uphill start, left and right unilateral bridges and pile winding;
Module 3: Road Driving Skills Test;
Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving test.
It is worth noting that although there have been some driving test reform measures in recent years, such as the addition of the same type of driver's license only needs to take the practical test, for the case of driving from C1 to D license, it is still necessary to take the test of all the above subjects in full.
Internship Notes
Once you pass all the tests, your license will become C1D, which means you can drive both a small car and a motorcycle. However, don't forget that there is also an internship period for motorcycles. The internship lasts for one year, during which time you will be able to pass the internship if you do not receive the full 12 points. If you commit an offence during your internship, it will not only affect your ability to drive a motorcycle, but also your C1 license.
Special Circumstances Handling
If you are unfortunate enough to have 12 points deducted during the internship period, your D certificate will be revoked and you will need to retake the exam. At the same time, the C1 license will also be affected to a certain extent, and you may need to take a safety education course to continue driving.
Adding a C1 license from a car to a D license for a motorcycle is both a challenge and a pleasure. In the process, you will not only be able to master more driving skills, but also better understand road traffic regulations. So, get ready for a new journey! Remember to be steady and steady every step of the way, safety first!
