Does a 70-year-old man need a driver's license to drive an electric tricycle?

Electric tricycle (BEV) refers to a vehicle powered by vehicle power and driven by motor, which meets the requirements of road traffic and safety regulations. Because it has less impact on the environment than traditional cars, its prospect is widely optimistic, but the current technology is not mature.

At present, there are two kinds of electric tricycles: one is a relatively simple so-called scooter for the elderly, which was produced without national demonstration, approval and approval. This kind of car has a high risk factor in terms of safety performance and driving operation, and the traffic control department will not issue a driver's license or license plate to this kind of car. One is a new energy vehicle-electric vehicle, which is approved and certified by the state. You need to get a driver's license according to the driving requirements of the vehicle (B certificate or CD certificate) and traffic regulations.

The key point is that after the accident, when the traffic police identify it as a motor vehicle, the vehicle must have a number plate and the driver must have a driver's license. If there is no license plate, the traffic police will punish according to the regulations. Generally speaking, if something goes wrong, you still have to bear the responsibility.
