How long does it take to retake the driving test and get the license after accumulating 12 points for speeding?

After accumulating 12 points on your driving license, it takes about a month to complete the re-education process and obtain the license. Once 12 points are deducted, you must attend a seven-day training course. The vehicle management office will then schedule a test within 20 days, totaling a minimum of 27 days, approximately one month. Below is additional information: Relevant regulations: Motor vehicle drivers must report to the traffic management department of the public security authority at the license issuance location or the place where the violation occurred within 15 days to attend a seven-day training on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the training, the vehicle management office must administer a test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days.

Last time I was caught speeding on the highway and got 12 points deducted, which instantly suspended my license. I was so anxious that I rushed to the traffic police station to inquire. Turns out I had to sign up for a road traffic safety education course, usually lasting 7 working days, with the option to attend online or in-person. The course covers driving safety knowledge and case studies. After completing it, there's a theory test on traffic rules—pretty straightforward, but you must pass it in one go. Once passed, you can get your new license either on the spot or the next day. The whole process takes about two to three weeks. Don’t delay too long; the sooner you complete it, the better, to avoid disrupting daily life. Speeding is really too risky—I almost rear-ended someone back then. Now I pay extra attention to speed limits and use a speed alert device, which is especially helpful for new drivers. Safe driving isn’t about luck; following the rules makes driving worry-free and safe.

As a new driver who just got my license, I accidentally accumulated 12 points from speeding and was really panicked. Later I found out that after license suspension, you need to attend a 7-day safety course with several hours each day, covering regulations and accident prevention. After completing the course, you take the theory test directly, and passing it will restore your license within one or two weeks. I enrolled in online learning, which was quite convenient - I could review while waiting for arrangements. A painful lesson indeed - speeding not only deducts points but also incurs fines, leaving me without a car for a month. I advise new drivers to develop the habit of using phone speed limit reminders, don't be like me chasing speed. Understanding rules better can avoid troubles - driving safety is more important than anything else.

I've been driving for over a decade and got 12 points deducted for speeding when I was younger. Experience tells me that after license suspension, you need to attend a 7-day training course focusing on traffic regulations as required, then pass the test to get your license reinstated—usually resolved within two weeks. Don't worry about complicated procedures; these training classes are very common, and traffic police will guide you. The key is to follow the rules—speeding often stems from distraction or rule-breaking. I later learned to control my speed and developed better driving instincts. I recommend regular vehicle checks, like tire pressure, to reduce risky driving. Safe driving is a long-term strategy; don't sacrifice safety for momentary thrills.
