The revoked driver's license will be updated in the system within twenty-four hours. Detailed information about driver's license revocation: Reasons for revocation: Driving an illegally modified vehicle or driving a scrapped vehicle will result in the revocation of the driver's license; causing a major traffic accident while driving under the influence of alcohol or drunk, constituting a crime, or fleeing after causing a major traffic accident will result in a lifetime driving ban; Methods to check revocation: You can log in to the comprehensive traffic safety service management platform website to check. According to the regulations on the application and use of motor vehicle driver's licenses, applicants can use the internet traffic safety comprehensive service management platform to handle motor vehicle driver's license business. After identity verification, they can submit applications online; Solution: You can reapply for a driver's license. When reapplying, the driver should bring the "Decision to Revoke Motor Vehicle Driving License" and the required documents for the initial application of a motor vehicle driver's license to the vehicle management office corresponding to the address recorded on the original driver's license. The reapplication should follow the regulations for the initial application of a motor vehicle driver's license regarding the permitted vehicle types.
When my driver's license was revoked, experience told me that the system entry is usually completed quickly, almost within 24 hours. For example, after the traffic police handle the revocation, the data is directly transmitted to the traffic management system database, and your status can be checked nationwide. This means that if you drive after revocation, the police will immediately see it as invalid as soon as they scan your ID or license number. The exact timing can vary—efficiency is higher in big cities, so it might be faster, while small towns occasionally take a bit longer. After the upload, you'll receive an SMS or paper notice, so it's advisable to promptly check the app for status updates and avoid driving with a revoked license. During this time, I believe safety comes first, so arranging public transportation or walking as alternatives is best.
