Can Points Be Cleared on the Day of the Driving License Demerit Reset Date?

[MacKeegan]

Points cannot be cleared on the day of the driving license demerit reset date. Overview of the Driving License Demerit Point Cycle: The demerit point cycle refers to the cumulative demerit point cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the demerit point cycle), which lasts for 12 months with a maximum of 12 points. It is calculated from the date the motor vehicle driving license was initially issued. Calculation of the Driving License Demerit Point Cycle: The demerit point cycle starts from the date the driving license was obtained. If the points accumulated within a demerit point cycle (12 months) do not reach 12 and all fines are paid before the end of this cycle, the system will automatically reset the points at the start of the next demerit point cycle. Points with unpaid fines will not be reset at the start of the next demerit point cycle. The next cycle will begin with these points carried over, and so on. If the points exceed 12, the driver will need to attend training to eliminate them. After adding a permitted vehicle type and obtaining a new driving license, the validity period of the driving license will not be recalculated, and the demerit point cycle will always start from the original date of the initial issuance of the driving license. It is important to note that during the probation period after adding a permitted vehicle type, if the driving license has a record of accumulating 12 points, the probationary driving qualification for the added vehicle type will be revoked.
