The invention discloses an LCD (liquid crystal display) including scan lines, data lines arranged across the scan lines, and pixel electrodes and transistors arranged in pixel areas formed by mutual cross of the scan lines and the data lines. The pixel electrode in each pixel area includes a first sub-pixel electrode and a second sub-pixel electrode, and the transistor in each pixel area includes a first transistor connected with the first sub-pixel electrode and a second transistor connected with the second sub-pixel electrode, wherein the grid electrodes of the first transistor and the second transistor are respectively and electrically connected with two adjacent scan lines, and the active electrodes respectively and electrically connected with the same data line. The invention further discloses a corresponding method for driving the LCD. The common voltage Vcom can be conveniently adjusted, and the ghost problem in the prior LCD can be improved by adopting the LCD and the driving method thereof.
