Does the driving license automatically clear points upon expiration?
1 Answers
Points deducted from the driving license will be cleared as long as the fines for the points are paid in full. The clearance time is until 24:00 Beijing Time on the expiration date. As long as the points do not reach 12 within one scoring cycle and there are no records of unhandled violations (generally referring to C1), the previous points will be reset to 0 at the beginning of the next scoring cycle. The calculation method for the driving license scoring cycle is as follows: 1. Calculated from the day the driving license is initially obtained: Every 12 months is a cycle. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," Article 65, the cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a full score of 12 points, calculated from the date the motor vehicle driving license is initially obtained; 2. Scoring values: Based on the severity of road traffic safety violations, the points for a single violation are divided into five types: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, and 1 point; 3. Article 66: For road traffic safety violations by motor vehicle drivers, penalties and points are executed simultaneously. If a motor vehicle driver has more than one violation to be scored at the same time, the points should be calculated separately and accumulated.
