drivers license in china, chinese drivers license, driving in china, drive in china, learn to drive in china
It does seem far more complicated than getting the U.S. driver's license, but I can understand when you are in a country with so many people, all the rules are designed for safety reasons. You did great and congratulations!

@@ozcscodex by no means, defensive driving is taught in the US systematically. most people learned driving from parents, so i don’t know what you are talking about.
最近再考美国驾照，失败了2次。一直再搜咋PASS DRIVING TEST 油管居然给我推荐了这个视频。哈哈。小姐姐好甜果断订阅了。另外真的是一方水土养一方人。行为谈吐举止真的很像中国女孩。矜持可爱又落落大方！加油
Some driving reminders / tips, not in order of importance. 1. Always signal ahead of time, and check your blind spot to determine if it's safe before you change lanes. 2. Go with the flow of traffic but don't tail gate, leave ample room between you and the driver in front of you. 3. If some is tailgating you, do not speed ahead, but either change lanes if you're in the fast lane or increase the distance between you and the car in front of you (you'll need to create a bigger zone between you and the car in front of you for safety - because speeding up will put you in a closer sandwich position between the car ahead of you and the aggressive tailgater behind you, this is not good.)💡 4. The faster you are driving, the more distance you should have between your car and the car in front of you.
5.always speed up when you change lanes，rather than slow down.
The extra paid mock test is to exclusively rent a test car. The mock test included in the contract is to share a car with others.
can i ask you about motorcycle driving licence ?
看到你拿到驾照开心的样子 真的很替你高兴 也想起来我自己考驾照时候😂😂😂 加油！！！
I spent two months for the test in one run in 2017/18, and luckily I made it. I was in a hurry since it was during Chinese New Year.
i want to ask you about motorcycle driving licence is it the same ?
Hi there, I am not sure about motorcycle licence personally. I would recommend to seek for professional advice.
That's amazing. As far as I know, driver's license test is extremely diffficult to pass that nearly half of the test takers would fail at their first attempt. Congrats and well done!
我他妈一次成，科一科四的2000道题看了两天就满分考过了，全他妈基础性的社会常识，大部分题干都是重复的，毫无难度。科目二，科目三我人都没到场，给教练一条烟直接就过了，再说了指定路线，指定项目，有啥难的？傻子都能过
@@phoenix_yih 出口成脏，目测阁下不超过30岁。有没有想过你爸妈那一辈有这么容易过吗？
@@phoenix_yih 不同地区、不同年代，考试难度都不同。近几年是越来越难、越来越正规，特别是广州这种大城市。
@@phoenix_yih 你给烟过是什么年代，好意思拿出来说么？我也是全部一次过，科一科四都是一天看完，科二科三现在都是电子监考，全程录像。科三路考路线都是第一次开，直接就是社会道路，不是封闭道路，社会车辆在附近来来回回，我也是完美通过~
@@喵队长 现在在个别地方还是可以的。和我一起考的有几个广西的，他们说再考不过就去买。应该是偏僻地方的个例吧。我去年考的
Definitely more complicated than in the US. Hope it's worth all the trouble. Good luck!
I had my test in Toronto Canada, all I did was pretending to check the blind spots by turning my head so dramatically and I parallel parked so bad it took me almost 5 mins to complete but guess what, I passed. Have fun and drive safely. Nice video!
hahaha hilarious!
I think China is more careful before letting you actually on the road. In most other country, we usually just do the screen test and then we right away goes onto the road test. But, they do two extra test in between in China, because...I guess they don't trust student drivers lol
@@peteryang8991 China make Driving Exam more or even World's most sophisticated!❤🌟👍💪🥰💯
@@suzeel That is so true. I think the main reason is that car didn't become widely available in China until the late 80s to early 90s. So, you ended up having a lot of older people with the driving skill of a teenager and that means more accident rate. So, they wanted to make the test harder to pass. This is especially grandma learning to drive.
Learning to drive is similar to learning martial art it is about muscle memory. A lot of things you just can't explain it, you just need to learn via experience and practice. But, when learning via experience and practice is usually harder for older people, because their brain is going down.
I saw this video a General, that is in the marine corps for years and now relocated to lead a paratrooper division, due to not enough commander of similar rank. He still need to learn how to jump from a plane. And we see that a lot of things younger cadet need to practice for 3 times, he need to practice 10 times. To make it not embarassing (because he is a two star General) he was in a class of his own, only one guy. But, you can still see the difference.
In most countries by the time you are 40 or 50 you are already an experienced driver. But, in China it is a completely different story. That is why they make the test so much more complicated, it is designed for grandma learning how to drive for the first time.
The US actually got the same problem when cars first came out in the early 20th century. And the accident rate was very high and there are even calls in congress to ban automobile, due to the high accident rate. It is similar to everytime somebody got shot by a cop today it make the front page news.
@@peteryang8991 Agree! The demanding driver's license exam in China is like a filter. Raise the threshold as much as possible to minimize traffic driving hazards
Wow, that is some serious test-taking! My son just took his test here in Florida a while back and I couldn’t believe how simple it was. They didn’t even get out of the parking lot for the driving portion. 😂😂😂
Great videos btw, looking forward to more.
I got my Florida license within only half hour practice
@@omnipotentmasterball762 😮😮😮
There are so many hurdles of getting the Chinese driver's license. I would be so discouraged. Congratulations! Enjoy your new-found freedom👍
thank you!
@@AlysaWonderland attention，international driving license is not the legal document that allows you drive in other countries, the legal document is international driving permit. As i know, Chinese driving license can not be changed to international driving permit directly.
不是中国人？中国考驾照难？人均作弊，路考都是指定路线，都不背法条，不讲路权，难个屁吧
you can tell the drivers out on the road that cheated their tests, unfortunately for them Chinese police are out taking them off road
@@phoenix_yih你来广州考试看看
I'm in Shanghai and just finished subject 3 and up to now it was less work then you went through but your right about the money issue!
You do better than me, It took me one whole year to pass all the driver test in Guangzhou, and I am a Chinese.
Congrats! I got my license first in the US and it qualified me for a Chinese driver's license as long as I pass the written test. It has a note that I'm not licensed to drive manual though cuz they don't test for that in the US.😂
这都能见到麦麦吗😁
mike and gwynn 😃 hi
点解可以系度见到你
Just a writing test, that's sounds easy. I pass my theory / writing test 100% that was years ago.
Congratulations! Well done 🥳
Thank you. You video is unique and very helpful for someone getting ready to live in China or at least knowing the ins and outs of navigating the system in GZ. Subscribed.
Thanks for the support!
its nice to see you again Alysa, good luck with the driving and be carefull, Guangzhou is little dificult to drive
It really is!
I think "stop on a hill" is still required if you choose to get the license that allows you to drive manual-transmission cars.
Such an awesome video that has not has been posted much... This is very informative....Great job and sharing... You are awesome
That's a really great explanation video on how to get the drivers license for the first time. I'm currently studying to get mine. Thanksss
NYC driver license supposingly the hardest in the country, and long story shortmake sure you pass the written test first then the actual road test...voila here's your NYS driver license! very proud of you for all hurdles that you have been through congrats!
Hahahaha
Just passed my subject 4 exam too!!! great video!!
congrats!!
Hey bro, did you do yours in English?
恭喜你拿到了驾照。在中国拿到驾照不是件容易的事情。我还记得我是2002年的冬天，哎，怎么脑海里响起来了那首歌了《2002年的雪》。确实车场里有好多雪，我们轮流着在一个212北京吉普的手动档车上练习。没有空调。真实的路考是没有的，所谓的路考也是在车场里进行的。各种障碍。包括坡起。可惜的是，由于当时有年检，我出国以后没机会回去，一年就作废了。但是好歹给我三个月的时间开车，在初到异国的前三个月开得一塌糊涂。但是好歹也混下来了，然后换成了当地驾照。现在想想，都是很宝贵的记忆。再次祝贺你。
I failed twice on my 科目三. Almost had a PTSD😂. I finally passed that exam on my third attempt. Took me almost 2.5 years to get my driving license 😢
🤣惨，我3个月
I spend 3 years,too
rough! its not easy
Well, it's really complicated. Congratulations to you.👍👍 I lived in Guangzhou for almost ten years and at one point I considered getting a local driver's license, but I failed the subject one test on computer. I was not able to get 90 questions right out of 100. To be honest, some of the questions were not relevant in my option.
you can do free exams on phone or computer at home before go to do test 1.
Alysa, You did better than me!!!! I am a native Chinese; however, I failed exam 2 and exam 3...🤣
Lovely and congratulations!
I grew up in china and got my license since 18, then I went to America for college, at age of 19 I took driving test without training in American driving school, and I failed twice before I got the pass. hahahahah. Now I have over 200K mileage on America, Mexico and EU road and less than 100 km experience of driving in China.
你开飞机呢？还里程.....🤣
恭喜诗闻拿到驾照，加油！
So much content in your Videos, your Wonderful!
10:42 Wow!! Never seen this before .. great packaging for french fries
主播视频做的很用心 不仅中英文双字幕 而且还有图解 支持 加油！！！
I got mine this September, it was brutal. I don't ever want to go through that again.
You did all tests in English or Chinese?
在广州会开车生活会很方便，周末可以去顺德吃美食，去肇庆旅游，活动半径一下放大了很多。
the sharp turns test would be super useful in the US. i cant tell you how many times people hit the curb turning in a drive thru including me.
congrats 🎉 omg, 💯 scores in subject 2 and 3 😂u r brilliant!!! hope i pass it ASAP❤❤
In the test field, each grass , each stone, each crack etc that make sense
Congratulations!Your hard work pays.😀🎊🎉
I'm a Chinese born and live in Shenzhen. I just got my driving license yesterday
Can you connect me with someone in Shenzhen who can help me take all tests im English please?
Or may be ask your recent teacher if he knows one
@@giavee9186 I'm sorry I'm afraid not
@@giavee9186 Maybe you can turn to someone professional
I was surprised that the testing got harder over time. My experience was in 2004. No one could parallel park. Every day I parked people stoped to watch, as they had never seen anyone do it I like the computers do it now. Very funny, always a lot of high 5 equivalents. I enjoyed the challenge of finding the new fastest routing across Beijing
On the contrary, driving tests used to be more difficult, but now many subjects have been reduced, such as one-way bridges, limited width doors, and 100 meter plus/minus gear, etc. Nowadays, driving tests are really simple.
Congratulations!!
thank you!
Here in INDIA i just buy a driving licence. ( for both 2-4 wheelers).
选个好驾校非常重要，我这边城市1几年的时候全部花费大概3500￥就能拿到证了
2019年，宁波5k拿到
前年我2800
Congratulations! Is this your first diriver's license? I already got European/Norwegian driver's license, so when I applied the Chinese one it's quite simple. I only needed to take the subject 1 and the total cost is under 100 RMB.
Does this apply to all Europeans or Norwegian driving licenses only? Have been thinking about moving to China in the near future and I am currently in the process of trying to figure things out before moving. Any recommendations?
@@data.monoid8785 I think the same policy applies to all European countries. I contacted a local traffic school, they told me to prepare two documents, a copy of original driver's license and a notarized translation by authority. I actually made the translation by myself without the notarization, but it worked. The traffic school didn't ask about the notarization at all, they just booked the subject 1 test for me. I passed the test and got the license on the same day.
@@cosmos69 very interesting! Thanks for the heads up, will make sure to bring the translation with me before departure.!
Very good video which covered all the necessary information.
I think those people can't learn in China who can't speak Chinese 😢😢
制作这个视频真的不容易，从开始到结束应该花了一个多月吧？辛苦啦其诗闻。
我以前考驾照时一边上班一边练车，早上天没亮就去了😂😂，八点回来去上班。冬天还冷得要死，还有沙雕教练叽叽歪歪摆架子，非常难忘的经历，这辈子不想再考第二次。
这也太辛苦吧😅
I grew up in GZ (mid-80's till late 90's) and love seeing videos from a 老广！
Thanks for your tips just wrote my test this morning and I passed in Beijing!!!!😊😊
I’m starting the process in Shenzhen. Found a school and am figuring it out. Seems rather odd, but I paid about 6k rmb. Good luck to me and all!
You can do it!
I got my drivers license in the UK when I was 17. Then got back to China without those original papers, so I had to do it all over again with 10 years of driving experience... the odd thing was, I forgot to put my seat belt on the first time during my subject 3 test...LOL so embarrassed...
哈哈，看来全国的驾校都是有些“坑”在的，我记得我那时候也是科三要交“补课费”才会真正教你如何在考场上应对那些细节的东西，不过还是恭喜姐姐通过考试！撒花🎉！
Congratulations
"I'm now legally allowed to drive" - shows an honest clip of bumper to bumper traffic, nice! lol
attention，international driving license is not the legal document that allows you drive in other countries, the legal document is international driving permit. As i know, Chinese driving license can not be changed to international driving permit directly.
恭喜妳！👍
Great content, I'm going to use my NY driving license to get the Chinese driving license next month in Guangzhou, Hopefully it will be smooth as well
我学车用了2分钟，没有人教，当然是自动挡，在一个漆黑的夜晚，从郊区开到市区往返大概40公里，就这样无证驾驶了三个月，然后去报名考了驾照，一切都很顺利，虽然不建议大家这样做，但是在美国，考驾照的时候都是会开车了，只是没有驾照而已
Haha, very interesting experience, looks like I am went through the driver test again, and you are so cute by the way 😊
恭喜你，基本上很少有人能一次通过，失败一次没关系。驾校有的很坑，最近有的驾校还卷款跑路，我之前的驾校就跑路了，很坑。
I have a year and a half before I head back to Guangzhou and I cant wait.
I got my driver license in the US,and when I back home, I did the subject 1 test and convert the US one to the Chinese one. The 4 subject test is just way too complicated.
我觉得中国的考驾照太繁琐了，个个都是重点反而搞不清真正的重点，明明简单的一件事偏偏要来折磨人，能顺利通过的人真是天才
当你出了车祸就后悔当初没好好学了，我一个同学在西藏无证驾驶撞死了一个未成年藏族姑娘，现在家里面也因为这件事赔钱的倾家荡产，如果不赔钱处理会面临进监狱，现在是终生不能驾车。
@@xinyisuoshu 就你这种素质上路肯定出车祸
昨天我终于拿到了驾照，
四个科目全部是第一次机会就通过的。
科目二到科目三总共连续培训了15天，(科目二8天，科目三6天+考场模拟1天)，每天只练车一小时
科目三考试的细节太多了，稍微不注意就会不合格。
科目四本来不想考试，因为确实没准备，后面带着试一试的心态去参加，结果还打了98分。
等待考试的时候很紧张，
拿到驾照的时候很激动。
恭喜你可以自己开车了！希望你和你的家人在中国生活开心
Thank you very much. Very helpful.
your story is very interesting and real. i like them very very much !
Can you believe that it took me 10 times to pass the road test for my US driver license, which costs me $100, $10 for each. In year 1990, $100=￥830 which is my one year's salary,￥57/month as a college instructor. Compare to me your experience is not bad at all.
I got my licence in Wuhan a year ago. I can drive in high ways now. As you know after you got your licence you can`t drive in high ways. First 1 year is your training period, they don`t let people to drive in high ways.
你太棒了，看的我好紧张。我考驾照的时候，比现在稍微简单一些。
其诗闻你好！我是洛杉矶的David，你的视频很有特点，很棒！点赞！👍
6:26 which means I could learn driving in private way 😮so cool
好棒！恭喜！
Wow well done. Great video. Looks more comprehensive than the tests here in the UK.
It's so much funny to see you went through whole process to get the drive license in China. I recently got my driver license, you only need pass 科目1 if you have US driver license. It makes so much easier. However, I wouldn't dare driving in China big city right away, the traffic is very difficult to navigate around, especially these e-scooter. You never see where and when they come to your way.
WOW this is intense! In India I bribed 3000 INR and got my drivers licence lol
Subject 2 is the most difficult for me, cause I failed that one once, haha...
You should have returned to the US to get a local driver's license and then come back to transfer your US driver's license to Chinese DL. In that case, you only need to take subject 1, the online testing, which will only take about 1 hour to get a driver's license. Getting a US DL is far easier and less time-consuming.
中国考驾照比较难，主要是中国人多，车多，花的时间会比较长，祝贺你👍👍👍
是的，我觉得我考的时间算是挺快的，不用排队
am Chinese and I took the driver's license test in 2012, which is slightly harder than you. But I also passed the test all the way, and it only took me over a month.
Never thought this would happen: living in North America but wanna learn how to drive in my country through the video of a person who came from North America but living in my country. lol.
I had been driving without a driver's license for several months. Then I went in to take the driver's written test. Once I passed that. I was allowed to drive with a DMV officer for about 5 minutes then I passed and got my driver's license. It looks so difficult and took too many steps to pass the driver's test in China. I will take a Didi instead of getting the driver's license in China.
Wow, so hard! Chinese drivers are well trained
非常喜欢你！希望你生活愉快顺利！
subject 4 is available in english right?
Good job! Did you have any language problem? I took one in Guilin, Guangxi. I had HK drive's license and just a paper testing. But, a big problem was at a testing place, they speak local dialect which I can't fully captured. Fortunately, I passed it. The most big challenge was driving in downtown BJ. :-)
In HK people Drive left lane, in China on the right lane! Didn't you have to pass many Driving Tests?????
I have C1E in China and DM in New York, New York is easy mode while China is hard mode, even though New York should be the one of the hardest state
I lived in Guangzhou myself. I'm considering going back.
Dang 1700 question and 100 on test then 4 steps thats so much work but only 4 months process. In Canada we take a written test G1 with 20 questions lol then wait 8 to 12 months until road test for G2 then another year to get the full license, G lol
Congrat!
Wow 👍 I didn’t have it now . I maybe need to ask you when I prepare to get driving license in China 😅
Congratulations for passing the exam! Could you please tell me what and how many theory and practical exam you normally have to pass? Oh btw, I don't speak and can't Chinese, I only speak Cantonese, Englisch and German.
I really would like to get a Driving Licence in China!❤❤❤ Thank you so much in advance.😊
It looks like in Brazil, where I got my driving license for the first time. In Germany it is much more difficult. Today, at least 40% of people fail on their first try
恭喜其诗闻~~~
Congratulations! 😻
1000 respects to who can pass subject 1 as non Chinese speaker
There is no 5 class or 7 class in China, but exist in Canada, it means ppl can get full license in China after this test. So it looks a little bit complex. 加油老司机！
i driven in vancouver canada for 15+ yrs before i came driving in guangzhou, i was amazed how careless i drove for those 15 yrs 😂 i concentrated and used my mirrors hell lot more than ever, and learn alot more about how to cut ppl off and when it is safe to let ppl cut me off... its not safe to let ppl cut u off coz they wont stop coming once someone else saw u as the chance to come through 😂 and staying on the speed limit because of all those traffic cameras...
anyways, i learn alot more driving here, and felt ridiculously dangerous on the road when i travelled back home as everyone speeds and no one use their mirrors 😂😂😂
I'm in Guangzhou too, and have done the first and second tests. My Chinese is really bad and I'm struggling with the instructions that I'll be given for test three, but I'll get there in time. My concernis for test number 4. Do you know if there is an option to do this in English, please? If it's Chinese only, I will be completely screwed!
Thanks for the content. Good stuff
Due to unavoidable circumstances, I abandoned the pursuit of a Chinese driver's license. and then I obtained my first driver's license in Florida.
