Do I need to take an exam if my driver's license is deducted 11 points?

If your driver's license is deducted 11 points, you do not need to take an exam. Only when all 12 points are deducted will you be required to study and take an exam. If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 points within a scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall detain their motor vehicle driver's license. You can apply for 'study to reduce points' through the Traffic Management 12123 mobile app. After studying and passing the exam, you can reduce 1 point each time, with a maximum reduction of 6 points within a scoring cycle. In other words, your driver's license can gain 6 points at this time. The motor vehicle driver shall, within 15 days, go to the traffic management department of the public security authority at the place where the motor vehicle driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred to participate in a seven-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After the motor vehicle driver completes the study, the vehicle management office shall conduct an exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days.

As a veteran driver with nearly two decades of experience, let me talk about driver's license point deductions. You don't need to take a test temporarily at 11 points—traffic regulations require attending classes and exams only when you accumulate 12 points. Last year, I got 7 points deducted for speeding, which scared me to death, so I quickly corrected my impatient driving habits. The key is to prevent further point additions, otherwise reaching 12 points within a year means a driving suspension. Your license points reset at the end of each scoring cycle, but only if you haven't exceeded the limit. I recommend downloading a traffic management app to check your points regularly—for example, running a red light deducts 6 points, which could push you over the limit in no time. Always obey traffic lights, speed limits, and seatbelt rules to prevent violations. Safety first not only protects yourself but also shows responsibility to others—develop good habits to stay clear of tickets. Remember, excessive points also affect your car insurance costs.

Buddy, I loved speeding when I was young and only woke up after getting 8 points deducted. You don't need to take a test for 11 points, but you do for 12. However, don't slack off—it's too easy to exceed the limit on the highway and get 6 points deducted at once, and even parking fines can cost you points. Be careful when driving: don't touch your phone, don't drink and drive—these are major point-deducting offenses. Your driver's license points reset every year, but 11 points is too close to the edge—one more violation and you're done. I recommend checking your violation records; it's easy to do on an app. Safe driving makes travel more worry-free. Also, fines cost money—what a waste—so it's better to drive steadily and follow the rules.

From my driving experience, having 11 points deducted from your driver's license does not require an exam; only reaching the full 12 points triggers training and testing. However, the risk is high, as minor violations like not wearing a seatbelt or crossing lines can easily push you to 12 points. Points are reset at the end of the scoring cycle, provided the limit isn't exceeded during that period. As a cautious driver, I believe maintaining speed control and adhering to traffic rules are key to avoiding accidents. Developing habits like buckling up before driving and using navigation speed alerts can reduce risks and protect you from penalties. Safe driving is a long-term beneficial choice.
