Can a 12-point demerit record on a driver's license be cleared?
1 Answers
If a motor vehicle driver's license accumulates 12 demerit points, the license cannot be canceled. Details: For large buses, tow trucks, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, reaching 12 demerit points will result in license downgrade. Regulations for other licenses are as follows: When a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 demerit points within one scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall confiscate the driver's license. Additional information: The driver's license will be temporarily held by the traffic police or vehicle management office where the violation occurred. The responsible party must register at the original issuing vehicle management office or the office where the violation occurred within 15 days and complete a seven-day study program on road traffic safety regulations. After completing the study, the responsible party must take a theoretical exam on road traffic safety regulations arranged by the vehicle management office within 20 days. If the exam is passed, the demerit points will be cleared. If failed, the study and exam must be continued. Failure to participate in the required study and exam may result in suspension of the driver's license by the vehicle management office.
