Can You Still Drive After Getting 12 Demerit Points on Your License?
1 Answers
If a vehicle accumulates 12 demerit points without being addressed, it cannot be driven on the road. Below is relevant information about motor vehicles receiving 12 demerit points: 1. Class A and B Driver's Licenses: If a Class A or B driver's license accumulates 12 demerit points within one scoring cycle, the highest vehicle class qualification will be revoked, and the driver must apply for a downgraded license within 30 days. 2. Class C Driver's License: If a Class C driver's license accumulates 12 demerit points, the license will be temporarily suspended by the public security traffic management department. The driver must report to the issuing authority of the motor vehicle driver's license or the public security traffic management department within 15 days to attend a 7-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the study, the driver must pass an examination arranged by the traffic management department to clear the demerit points and have the motor vehicle driver's license returned. 3. Probationary Period: If 12 demerit points are accumulated during the probationary period, the highest permitted vehicle class for Class A and B licenses will be revoked, while the probationary driving qualification for Class C licenses will be canceled.
