Hello everyone, thanks for posting this info. I was planning on renting a motorbike to travel around Yunnan during the Chinese New Year. I have my residence permit but I do not have the local driving license (I have the one from my country). I was wondering how difficult would it be to get around without the local driving license pretending not to speak Chinese if any police stops us or giving some money? Otherwise, how quick can I get the license in Shanghai? Many thanks for the help. Beltran
