Points deducted from a driver's license may not be immediately visible. Below are the methods for deducting points for speeding: 1. Within 10%: If speeding on the highway exceeds the speed limit by less than 10%, a warning will be issued. 2. Fine and deduct 3 points: Exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine of 200 yuan and 3 points deducted. 3. Fine and deduct 6 points: Exceeding the speed limit by 20% to less than 50% will result in a fine of 200 yuan and 6 points deducted. 4. Fine: Exceeding the speed limit by more than 50% may lead to the revocation of the driver's license and a fine of 2000 yuan. Below is extended information on the point deduction standards for driving in the wrong direction: 1. If a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following violations, 12 points will be deducted at once: driving a motor vehicle in reverse, driving in the wrong direction, or making a U-turn across the central divider on a highway. 2. If a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following violations, 3 points will be deducted at once: driving a motor vehicle to overtake or yield improperly or driving in the wrong direction. 3. Penalties for driving in the wrong direction as stipulated in Article 90 of the Road Traffic Safety Law: If a motor vehicle driver violates the road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules, a warning or a fine of not less than 20 yuan but not more than 200 yuan will be imposed.
I've been driving for ride-hailing services for eight years and have dealt with many traffic violations. Points deducted from your driver's license usually can't be checked immediately. After handling the violation, the data needs to be uploaded to the system. This process can take as little as two to three hours, or as long as one or two days. This is especially true for cross-province violations, as the backend data exchange takes more time. The most convenient way to check is through the Traffic Management 12123 app, but don't refresh it too frequently—each login requires facial recognition. Once, I was in a hurry for my annual inspection and handled the points deduction in the morning, but they didn't update until the evening. If you're really in a rush, go to the self-service machine at the vehicle management office and scan your ID card—that system updates faster. I recommend waiting at least 24 hours before checking again, otherwise you might make a wasted trip.
Last week, I just accompanied a novice friend to deal with speeding points deduction, and I was also puzzled by the score query delay. The traffic management system needs time to process data, and violations caught by electronic eyes are recorded more slowly, while tickets issued by officers on the spot are updated faster. If you can't find it on Alipay, try another channel, such as the local traffic police's official account or the official website on a computer. I've observed the query speed at different times. If processed during working hours on weekdays, it can usually be checked the same afternoon, while those processed on weekends have to wait until Monday. If you still can't find it after three days, it's most likely that the system hasn't recorded it or the information was filled in incorrectly.
