Previously on Licensed to Drive…

*****前情提要*****

I managed to pass both my practical tests.

我已经通过了科目二和科目三的考核。

Coach："You should practice." 你得多练习

Stephen："Yeah."

Stephen：“Go back, go back, go back...”

N：“请开启前照灯。” Please turn on the headlights.

And now, final step remains— a theory test on road safety. If I pass, I will leave the building with a valid Chinese drive licence.

现在到了最后一关——科目四，安全文明驾驶常识。如果我通过的话，就可以拿到中国驾照啦！

Well. I'm back at the traffic management administration office

我又回到了车管所

to do my Test No.4.

来考科目四

Now when you're getting your driver's license,

在驾驶证考试过程中

Test 1 and 4 are written.

科目一和科目四是笔试

However, they are different.

但是，它们有所不同

Test 4 focuses a little bit more on traffic security measures，

科目四更侧重于交通安全规则

first-aid stuff and things like that.

急救等相关措施

So I'm about to go in now and register

现在要去窗口登记

to take my Test No.4.

然后进行科目四考试了

Well. I got a perfect score, 100%. And now it's time for me to go and pick up my license finally.

我得了满分，100分。现在，我就去拿我的驾照了。

-谢谢。

Thanks.

SU:

I can finally drive my car.

我终于可以开我的车了。

SU:

Quite an ordeal and I had to do a lot of stuff, but you know it was probably a blessing in disguise because I hadn't driven in a very long time. And driving in China is very different and driving where I'm from. The roads are a lot more congested, some of the laws are different. So it was probably a good thing that I did all four tests to get this license as opposed to simply handing in a valid license from overseas and switching it, which is what most expats do when they move here. So I'm glad I did it. It was tough, but it's done now, and I can finally drive my car.

真是磨难重重，我花了很多精力，但也许这也算因祸得福，毕竟我已经很久没开车了。在中国开车和在我老家也有很大区别。这里堵车严重得多，而且有些法规也不一样。所以，相比大多数这里的老外直接上交境外驾照做更换，我经历了所有四项考试取得驾照，也是一件好事。我很高兴我做到了。虽然有些困难，但我成功了，也终于可以开车了。
