For holders of a C1 driver's license, if demerit points are incurred during the probationary period but do not reach 12 points, the probationary period will not be extended. Additional information regarding demerit points during the probationary period is as follows: 1. The demerit point cycle for traffic violations is 12 months, with a total of 12 points. Depending on the severity of the violation, points can be deducted as follows: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point. In practice, there are also cases where 0.5 points are deducted. 2. If fewer points are deducted within a year, by the next cycle, the points will automatically reset to zero. If a total of 12 points are accumulated, the license holder must attend a training session at the vehicle management office where the license was issued or at the location where the violation occurred. If 12 points are accumulated twice consecutively within one demerit point cycle, an additional road test (Subject Three) will be required. Only after passing both tests can the points be reset to zero; otherwise, the driver's license cannot be used normally.

Speaking of the issue of point deductions during the C1 driver's license probationary period, I happen to have a friend who experienced this situation. Generally, getting points deducted during the probationary period won't extend its duration. The rules are clear: as long as the total points deducted within the one-year probationary period don't exceed 12, the probationary period will end as usual without extension. However, if you're unlucky enough to accumulate 12 points, your probationary license will be revoked directly, and you'll have to retake the written test (Subject 1). Only after passing the theory exam can you start over. I recommend that new drivers pay extra attention to driving safety during the probationary period—for example, slowing down, not rushing yellow lights, and avoiding speeding or crossing lines, as these minor violations can easily lead to point deductions. The key is to develop good habits, such as using navigation to avoid entering restricted zones or misjudging traffic signals. The probationary period is meant for adaptation, and making mistakes is normal, but don't let them escalate into major issues. Safe driving not only protects yourself but also prevents affecting your license status.

As a seasoned driver with over a decade of experience, I often remind young drivers about the penalty points during the C1 license probationary period. It's clear that the probationary period won't be extended due to penalty points. The key is not to exceed a total of 12 points; if you do, the probationary period becomes invalid, and you'll have to retake the theoretical part of the driving test. Always observe road conditions and signs carefully, maintain a safe distance, and avoid risky behaviors like drunk driving or driving without a license during the probationary period. This period is for gaining experience—drive with experienced drivers to learn how to avoid violations. Don't worry too much about minor infractions like forgetting to wear a seatbelt, but serious incidents like major accidents are dangerous. Developing a smooth driving style can help you transition smoothly to the full license stage and reduce unnecessary troubles. Safety comes first, so don't let penalty points upset you.

C1 License Probation Period Points Deduction? Don't panic. Points deduction itself doesn't extend the probation period. As long as you don't accumulate 12 points, the one-year probation period will end naturally. However, if you accumulate 12 points, your probation period will be revoked, and you'll need to retake the subject one exam. Just follow traffic rules and drive carefully, and you'll be fine. Use the probation period to practice your driving skills and avoid violations.

Is the Volkswagen Golf GTI four-wheel drive?

The Golf GTI is not four-wheel drive; it is a front-engine, front-wheel-drive vehicle. Front-engine, front-wheel drive means the engine is positioned at the front of the car, and the front wheels drive the entire vehicle. Four-wheel drive refers to a system where all four wheels operate independently during driving, providing higher cornering limits on the road and optimal power distribution to each wheel during high-speed turns. The Golf GTI is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 162 kW and a maximum torque of 350 Nm. The engine achieves its peak power at 4,500 to 6,200 rpm and its peak torque at 1,500 to 4,400 rpm. This engine features hybrid injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block. Part-time four-wheel drive: Part-time four-wheel drive is a system where the driver can manually switch between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The driver can engage or disengage the transfer case to achieve two-wheel or four-wheel drive based on driving needs. Full-time four-wheel drive: Full-time four-wheel drive means that all four wheels of the vehicle are independently driven at all times during operation. This system requires the use of a central differential. Full-time four-wheel drive first appeared in Subaru vehicles. This four-wheel-drive mode significantly enhances the vehicle's off-road capability and handling performance.

What are the consequences of deducting 6 points?

A deduction of 6 points on your driver's license has no significant impact as long as you do not accumulate 12 points within one cycle. According to Article 24 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": If a motor vehicle driver's accumulated points within a scoring cycle do not reach 12 points and the imposed fines have been paid, the points will be cleared. If the points do not reach 12 points but there are unpaid fines, the points will carry over to the next scoring cycle. Below are relevant details about driver's license point deductions: 1. Scoring Cycle: The cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points, calculated from the date the driver's license was initially issued, and so on in a continuous cycle. The license's point-clearing date is the issuance date on the license, and the system automatically clears the points on that date each year. The scoring cycle is one year from the "initial issuance date" of the license, and so on in a continuous cycle. 2. Handling of Accumulating 12 Points: If you accumulate 12 points, you must attend a study session and pass the subject one exam at the vehicle management office where the license was issued or where the violation occurred (if you accumulate 12 points twice consecutively in one scoring cycle, you must also pass the subject three exam after upgrading). Only after passing can the points be reset. Otherwise, the driver's license cannot be used normally.

Can the ETC details of the day be queried?

ETC details of the day can be queried. Users can log in to the Speedpass company website with their card number and password to check the consumption records of the past six months. ETC is the abbreviation of Electronic-Toll-Collection, which translates to Electronic Toll Collection System in Chinese. It is an automatic toll collection system for highways or bridges. More information about ETC is as follows: 1. Working Principle: Through dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, the system uses computer networking technology and bank system backend settlement processing to enable vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay the toll. 2. Improved Traffic Capacity: It can significantly increase the traffic capacity at entrances and exits, improving the user experience for vehicle owners and achieving the goal of convenient and quick access to parking lots. It allows drivers to avoid long queues at manual toll windows and directly pass through the less congested ETC dedicated lanes without stopping. One ETC lane's service capacity is equivalent to that of 3 to 5 manual exit lanes. 3. Precautions for Using ETC: The transaction range of ETC is 8 meters, and the toll will be automatically completed when the vehicle enters the transaction zone. When there is a vehicle in front, maintain a distance of 10 meters to prevent automatic sensing and paying the toll for the preceding vehicle.

What does active braking mean?

Active braking refers to a technology where the vehicle can autonomously generate braking effect to decelerate (though vehicles equipped with this function may not necessarily bring the vehicle to a complete stop) when encountering sudden hazardous situations during normal driving without adaptive cruise control, thereby improving driving safety. Active safety systems include electronic devices such as ABS and ESP, while passive safety systems involve vehicle body energy-absorbing structures, seat belts, airbags, etc. Today, the cutting-edge technology of active safety systems has evolved to pre-collision safety systems, with active braking systems being a typical example.
