Do I still need to undergo annual review after the A2 license study method exempts points?

[DiEvan]

A2 license study method exempts points. If the driver's license has not been deducted points, there is no need for annual review. Drivers holding licenses for large buses, tractors, urban buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks must undergo a review at the traffic management department of the public security authority within thirty days after the end of each scoring cycle. Relevant information about the driver's license is as follows: 1. Introduction: The People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driver's License, referred to as the driver's license, also known as the 'driving license,' is a necessary certificate for motor vehicle drivers formulated in accordance with the laws of the People's Republic of China. 2. Examination content: The test subjects include three items: traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving).

As a veteran truck driver with 20 years of experience, I'm very familiar with the annual review regulations for A2 driver's licenses. After using the 'study to deduct points' method, the key is to check the accumulated demerit points at the end of the scoring cycle. If you've handled all traffic violations on the 12123 platform and successfully completed the point deduction through study, and the system shows 0 accumulated points after the clearance date (the initial license issuance date), then you don't need to undergo annual review for this cycle. However, it's crucial to note: all violations must be processed before the scoring cycle ends. System updates may take 1-3 days, so it's recommended to complete the process at least one week in advance. Last year, I successfully eliminated 3 points through the study method, and the 12123 system automatically updated to show 'exempt from this review', saving me half a day's trip to the vehicle management office.

Last time when I renewed my license at the DMV, I specifically consulted the window officer. The annual review rules for A2 driver's licenses are actually very clear: whether an annual review is required depends solely on the final penalty points in the current cycle. Even if you had points deducted before, as long as you clear them by the end of the cycle (based on the initial issuance month of the license) through methods like traffic law study for point exemption, the system will automatically recognize it as exempt from review. However, there's a detail many people overlook: if your points are cleared on July 1st but you only complete the point exemption study on June 30th, the system might still show that a review is required if the data isn't updated in time. Therefore, it's recommended to handle it 15 days in advance. After completing the process, check the 'Review Education Status' on the 12123 app three days later. Only when you see 'Completed' can you rest assured.

I'm in long-distance refrigerated transport, and the company requires quarterly checks on driver's license status. Regarding the annual review after deducting points through legal study, the traffic management APP clearly states: the points for the current cycle must be cleared to be exempt from review. There are two scenarios here: if it's the first time with 1-8 points deducted through legal study, the review is automatically exempted on the points clearance date; but if the points reach 9-11, even after deduction, you must attend an on-site review study within 30 days after the cycle ends. It's recommended to take a screenshot as proof after completing the point deduction and check the 'accumulated points' on 12123 the day after the clearance date to see if it's reset to zero. If it's zero, no annual review is needed.

As a driving instructor, I often remind my students: The key to the annual review of an A2 driver's license is the point value at the end of the scoring cycle. The 'Learn to Reduce Points' program essentially offsets the deducted points, and as long as the final points are cleared, the review can be waived. In practice, there are three points to note: First, the application for 'Learn to Reduce Points' must be completed within the scoring cycle, as it is invalid across cycles; second, after processing, it is necessary to confirm that the traffic violation fines have been paid and the system has canceled the points; third, A2 driver's licenses within the probationary period must undergo the annual review regardless of whether points are waived. For example, last year, one of my students successfully cleared 6 points three days before the point-clearing date, and the system showed 'No need to participate in this cycle's review,' allowing normal use afterward.

Just asked my cousin who works at the traffic police department, and he explained it very straightforwardly: The only criterion for A2 driver's license exemption from annual review is whether there is accumulated demerit points on the score reset day. If you successfully reduce points through the 12123 legal learning system and the final score returns to zero (for example, originally deducted 3 points and reduced to 0), the system automatically exempts you from the annual review. However, there are special cases: if you once reached 9-11 points, even if you later reduced them to below 8 points, you still need to complete 3 hours of study within 30 days after the score reset day to fulfill the review requirement. Here's a little tip: Log in to the traffic management 12123 app and check the 'driver's license status'. If it shows 'normal' and there is no review prompt, you don't need to make a trip. My experience is that after completing the point reduction operation, you should wait for the system to update, and it's best to handle it a month in advance.
