Drivers of China's online ride-hailing services will be required to hold a license by passing exams in November
Unlicensed drivers who engage in the services will face a fine ranging from 10 thousand yuan ($1,500) to 30 thousand yuan ($4,500)
Those with 3-years of driving experience and no records of traffic accident crimes, dangerous driving, drugs or drink driving will be allowed to take examinations for online-driving services
The requirements come from one of two newly issued regulations over the taxi and online ride-hailing services by China's transportation authority. The regulations will take effect in October and November respectively
For example, taxi drivers who take a detour or refuse passengers can also be fined a maximum of 2,000 yuan
