Does Selling Driver's License Points Have Any Impact?
2 Answers
The impacts of selling driver's license points are as follows: 1. Impact one: The other party's violation records will remain in your file, affecting vehicle annual inspections and relevant DMV audits. 2. Impact two: If you exceed 9 points and incur additional demerit points, you may surpass 12 points, resulting in license suspension and requiring a retake of the written test (Subject One). 3. Impact three: If the violation involves hit-and-run or other illegal activities, you may face legal liabilities. The respective impacts of buying and selling driver's license points are described below: 1. Impact on the buyer: Due to the use of high-definition cameras, discrepancies between the driver's license and the actual violator captured in HD footage can lead to severe consequences, including license suspension. HD cameras can capture facial features and outlines, requiring matching information during violation point processing. Even if not detected immediately, buyers using others' licenses for point deductions will face penalties during reviews. 2. Impact on the seller: Sellers whose points reach 12 or who originally had fewer than 12 points but incur violations totaling 12 points must retake the Subject One exam before the next point reset cycle. Simply completing the exam isn’t sufficient, as having 12 demerit points also affects the renewal of a 10-year license. Additionally, records of selling points can harm personal credibility and credit scores, as well as affect civil service evaluations.
I think selling driver's license points is really inadvisable because it's completely illegal from a legal perspective. I've studied traffic regulations myself, and buying or selling points is considered an act of disrupting traffic order. If caught by traffic police, the consequences can be severe, such as having your license suspended for several months or even revoked permanently, along with hefty fines starting from several thousand yuan. Moreover, the driver's license point system is designed to monitor driving safety. Selling points allows those who actually violate traffic rules to continue driving dangerously, increasing the risk of accidents. In the long run, it can also affect your personal credit record, potentially causing issues when applying for loans or other documents in the future. Therefore, I strongly advise against taking this risk for a small amount of money. Safe driving is the right path.
