China motorcycle driving license: written test question bank?

[chinabiker]

I took the test today. It was in English.

Road test in five days, then another road test after that.

This is the normal procedure if you DON'T have a foreign dl.

This is China. Things are not standardized for sure. I was fortunate, only had to translate my USA license and take the written test. Good luck and do not give up. TIC

This is the process when you have a foreign dl.


However, as mentioned TIC, every village different rules

P.S. Not all cities are allowed to issue driving licenses to foreigners. Usually the provincial capitals as well as other large cities should be allowed.

Just to ask, where, in Wuhan, did you go to take the test? I have only been to Wuhan a few times and do not know the city that well. I do have a motorcycle endorsement on my US license.

Dear Hasaf,

Welcome to the forum. Any reason why you can't take the test there in Xinyang? If they cannot offer the test to you in English, as the vehicle management offices in major cities can, you can probably request that a translator be present when you take the test in Chinese. If so, just make sure that your translator knows all the right answers!

As for Wuhan, I think we have a handful of members in Wuhan, and hopefully they'll come forward with the info you need about testing there.

You are fortunate to have a valid US motorcycle license. This will save you all the pain and suffering of the mandatory "riding school" for the unlicensed. With the US endorsement, all you'll need do is get 90 or higher on the written exam.

Good luck.

What do you do there in southern Henan, and what do you, or will you, ride?

cheers

Hasaf,

I took the test in Hanyang. There's a traffic bureau located about 200 m west (away from the Yangtze river) of Wang jia wan (王家湾), on the left. That was about a year ago.
