Are there any consequences for selling driver's license points?

[RuthLee]

Selling points from a driver's license has consequences. According to new regulations, individuals who accept traffic violation penalties and points on behalf of actual drivers for economic gain will have their motor vehicle driver's license suspended for six months and be fined between 1,000 and 2,000 yuan. Relevant information about driver's licenses is as follows: 1. Introduction: The People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driver's License, commonly referred to as a driver's license or 'driver's permit,' is a mandatory credential for motor vehicle drivers under Chinese law. 2. Examination Content: The test subjects include traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving).

After driving for so many years, I find it totally unreliable when I see people selling their driver's license points. This practice is outright illegal—traffic laws explicitly prohibit it. If caught, the fines can range from a few hundred to several thousand yuan, and you might even have your license suspended or face a few days in detention. What's worse, once you've sold your points, you won't have any left for your own traffic violations. If you exceed the limit, your license could be revoked outright, forcing you to retake the test, which is both time-consuming and exhausting. Additionally, if your insurance company finds out, they could significantly increase your premiums, sometimes by tens of percent in a year. Don’t think you can get away with it—the system is fully networked and tracks everything. Selling even a single point encourages dangerous driving, and if someone gets hurt in an accident, could you live with that guilt? My advice: play it safe. Keep your points for yourself and drive responsibly—nothing beats that.

I'm looking at this from a young guy's perspective. I have friends who tried selling points to make quick cash, only to get screwed—fined by the traffic police, not to mention the hit to their credit records. Now, it might come up during job background checks, potentially ruining their future. If you sell all your points and get into a minor accident, you'll have to pay out of pocket because the insurance won't cover it—that's a huge loss. Not to mention, by taking the blame for reckless drivers, you're letting them off the hook and increasing road risks for everyone. In the long run, it's not worth a few bucks. We young folks should learn to play by the rules and avoid small gains that lead to big losses.

Selling points is not beneficial. It's strictly prohibited by law, and if caught, you'll face fines and point deductions, with severe cases possibly leading to vehicle impoundment or detention. More importantly, it poses safety risks—helping others evade responsibility allows reckless drivers to continue endangering themselves and others. Once your own points are gone, handling violations becomes difficult. Don't think it's easy to evade; the system keeps records. In short, it's high-risk and unethical—I advise against it.
