Does a cumulative score of 3 points mean 3 points have been deducted?

[EvangelineFitz]

A cumulative score of 3 points on a driver's license means 3 points have already been deducted; the driver's license originally starts with 0 points, and points are recorded for traffic violations. Scoring cycle: The cumulative scoring cycle for traffic violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points, calculated from the date the driver's license is first issued. Scoring categories: Based on the severity of traffic violations, the points deducted at one time can be: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point. Scoring regulations: For a driver's traffic violations, penalties and point deductions are executed simultaneously. If a driver commits more than one violation at a time, the points are calculated separately and then accumulated.
