oh gosh.. it's not a soical credit score... it's a credit score belong to wechat pay or alipay..... if you have a good score, when you use them, you dont need to pay the deposit for things like renting a bike/powerbank.
for example my alipay score is 824 and my wechat pay score is 677. both are very good.

- Surprised to see this here but happy to answer any questions! Driving across China and getting to use the latest EVs has been quite fun and I hope to do it even more in the future.

- That was an interesting read! I've been driving in Japan for the last 3 years. Mostly rural, so it's pretty chill. But city driving can be stressful and chaotic. I don't think my heart could take driving in Chinese cities. As the author wrote, having mopeds everywhere would be stressful.
I didn't know that the IDP does not work with China. I needed an IDP to drive in Japan for my first year. After the first year, I got a Japanese driver's license.
Also, it was funny how many times the author mentioned WeChat. You really do use it everywhere in China!
- When I was in Almaty and Bishkek some years back, the overlander haunts occasionally saw the arrival of frantic motorcyclists who learned only then that they couldn’t continue on into China, they would have to ship the bike to Southeast Asia. Glad to see that it is now easier for foreigners to drive in China.
