Can a C1 driver's license still be renewed after 6 points deducted?
2 Answers
A C1 driver's license with 6 points deducted can be renewed if the fine is paid promptly after the points deduction. According to Article 70 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": When a motor vehicle driver applies for a replacement driver's license in accordance with Articles 57 and 58 of these regulations, they shall undergo an inspection by the traffic management department of the public security authority. Article 71 states: Those who have unresolved traffic violations or accidents, whose physical conditions do not meet the requirements for driving, or who have not participated in required learning, education, or exams as stipulated, will not pass the inspection. For the annual review and renewal of an expired driver's license, the old license must be surrendered to the vehicle management office. According to the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123, the renewal of a driver's license can be applied for 90 days in advance at the original issuing vehicle management office. Materials required for renewing a driver's license: Original ID card and a photocopy. Qualified medical examination form from a hospital designated by the vehicle management office. Three one-inch white-background color photos. Completed driver's license renewal application form and processing fee. Photos and medical examination reports for renewal can be brought by the applicant. If concerned about their validity, these can be processed directly at the traffic police office to avoid delays. Relevant matters for renewing an expired driver's license: If the license is expired, the traffic police may impose a fine but will not deduct points. There is also a latest deadline for renewal: if the license has been expired for less than a year, it can be renewed through the normal process; if expired for one to three years, the license will be canceled, but it can be re-obtained by passing the subject one exam; if expired for more than three years, the license will be canceled. When applying, the applicant must fill out an application form and submit the following documents: the motor vehicle driver's identity proof; the motor vehicle driver's license; a medical condition certificate issued by a county-level or higher medical institution or a military hospital at the regimental level or above. For those applying for a special small automatic transmission passenger vehicle for the disabled, a medical condition certificate issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority must be submitted.
Hey bro, you're asking if you can renew your license with 6 demerit points? I know this too well! Last year I also had exactly 6 points before renewing my license. As long as you haven't reached 12 points, it won't affect normal renewal at all. Just remember to go to the DMV three months in advance, and most importantly, pay all traffic fines first. Install the 12123 traffic app on your phone - checking violations and paying fines takes just minutes. When I did mine, my medical exam had expired, so I paid 20 yuan to retake the vision test at the DMV's self-service machine and got my new license in two hours. Now they're valid for ten years, much more convenient than the old ones!
