How Many Points Are Required for Annual Vehicle Inspection?

[StRosalie]

Annual vehicle inspection requires 12 points on the driver's license. Types of Driver's Licenses and Permitted Vehicle Categories: C1 license permits driving small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, and light, small, and micro special-purpose vehicles. C2 license permits driving small automatic transmission vehicles, including small and micro automatic transmission passenger vehicles and light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. C3 license permits driving low-speed cargo vehicles (formerly four-wheel agricultural transport vehicles). C4 license permits driving three-wheeled vehicles (formerly three-wheel agricultural transport vehicles). B2 license permits driving large trucks, heavy and medium cargo vehicles, and large, heavy, and medium special-purpose vehicles. Validity Period of Driver's License: The driver's license is valid for six years. After the six-year validity period expires, it will be replaced with a ten-year validity license. Eligible drivers may receive a long-term valid license. The driver must apply for a license renewal at the vehicle management office where the license was issued or another office 90 days before the expiration date.

I've been driving for over a decade, and the driver's license annual review has nothing to do with points. Points are for traffic violations like running red lights or speeding—when the traffic police give you demerit points, and if you accumulate 12 points, you'll need to retake the theory test (Subject 1). The annual review mainly checks the driver's health condition, such as vision and hearing, to ensure you're still fit to drive safely. Younger drivers might only undergo review when renewing their license every 6 or 10 years, but older drivers like me over 50 need to get a medical checkup at the hospital every year. The key point is, the annual review only checks whether you have a qualified medical report—your points don't affect the approval. Of course, if you've accumulated too many points, you should be extra careful to follow the rules to avoid hitting the 12-point limit, which could lead to license suspension. Safety comes first when driving, and don't delay your annual review.

The annual review of the driver's license does not require any point requirements. Points are merely a system for recording traffic violations. The annual review focuses on your personal health check, such as vision tests, to ensure you can drive safely. I haven't been driving for long, but experienced drivers say that losing points is another matter. For example, if you accumulate 12 points, you'll have to retake the test, which indirectly affects your driving privileges, but it's not directly related to the annual review. The annual review is usually conducted within the license renewal cycle. Young drivers may only need it once every few years, while older drivers need it annually. In short, keeping your points low helps avoid extra trouble, but the health check is the key part of the annual review. Remember to bring your health check form and ID when making an appointment.

Driving license points are not involved in the annual review process, which is a health check for drivers, such as eye tests. Points are part of the penalty system for traffic violations, with a maximum of 12 points. Losing all points requires retaking the theoretical test. The frequency of annual reviews depends on age; younger drivers are reviewed only when renewing their license, while older drivers need annual medical check-ups. Don't worry about points affecting the annual review; the key is ensuring you pass the medical examination.

The annual review of the driver's license does not consider the points at all. Points are a deduction mechanism for traffic violations, while the annual review focuses on the driver's physical health. Each time you go for a license renewal or periodic inspection, the center will require you to provide a medical examination certificate, checking vision, hearing, etc., which is unrelated to points. However, having fewer than 12 points is a prerequisite for driving eligibility. If all points are deducted, you must undergo study and testing, which may affect your driving ability. It is recommended to regularly monitor your point balance, drive safely to avoid deductions, and complete the required medical examinations for the annual review on time.
