Does deducting points for a C1D motorcycle affect a car?
2 Answers
Having a C1D driver's license and deducting points for riding a motorcycle will affect the car, because each driver only has one driver's license. Adding a D endorsement to a C1 license does not mean the driver has two licenses, but rather that the driver's license now includes the motorcycle endorsement in addition to the original qualifications. Simply put, no matter how many vehicle types are added, the driver's license will eventually be consolidated into one, and all these vehicle types share the same 12-point system. Therefore, no matter which vehicle type you are driving, if you commit a traffic violation and points are deducted, the available points for all endorsed vehicle types will be reduced accordingly. It can be said that the more vehicle types you are endorsed to drive, the more traffic regulations you need to pay attention to, and the higher the probability of having points deducted from your driver's license. C1 Driver's License: The C1 driver's license is one of the codes for motor vehicle driver's licenses. The C1 license allows the holder to drive small and mini passenger vehicles, light and mini cargo vehicles; light, small, and mini special purpose vehicles; and small passenger vehicles with a seating capacity of 9 or fewer people.
Haha, I've had a similar experience! Once I accidentally ran a red light on my motorcycle and got 2 points deducted. I was so worried it might affect my car driver's license. After consulting some knowledgeable friends, I learned that demerit points are recorded against the driver personally, not by vehicle type. This means points deducted from motorcycle violations are directly added to your total score. If your total exceeds 12 points, you might have to attend traffic regulation classes or face license suspension, which would affect even your car driving privileges. I've since learned my lesson - whether riding a motorcycle or driving a car, I strictly obey traffic lights and speed limits now. Honestly, this points system serves as a reminder that safety comes first. Don't let momentary carelessness ruin your entire record. Nowadays when discussing this with others, I always recommend installing navigation apps with speed limit alerts as preventive measures. The consequences could impact more than just your car driving privileges.
