a2 driver's license requires study as long as it has points deducted. The specific situation is as follows: According to the new regulations: Starting from May 1, 2012, holders of A1, A2, B1, and B2 driver's licenses must participate in traffic safety study as long as there are point records. Annual review participation: Holders of A1, A2, B1, and B2 driver's licenses, in addition to submitting a physical condition certificate every two years, must also participate in an annual review every year. Different point deductions on the driver's license result in different study requirements. The specific situations are as follows: Less than 5 points: If there is a record of less than 5 points within one year, no less than 3 hours of traffic safety study is required. 6 to 11 points: No less than 12 hours of traffic safety study is required. Full 12 points: The driver's license will be confiscated on the spot, and the holder will be ordered to participate in a 7-day traffic safety study.

I've been driving large buses for over a decade and know all about A2 licenses. There are rules for penalty points: if you accumulate more than 12 points in a scoring cycle, you must study road traffic safety regulations and pass an exam to get your license back. With fewer than 12 points, studying isn't mandatory, but stay vigilant—I've seen many drivers relax after 8-9 points, only to exceed 12 points with their next violation. A2 drivers especially need to be careful, as violations in large vehicles carry higher risks—like speeding or running red lights, where points can quickly add up. My advice: develop good habits—stay focused while driving, use navigation warning features often, and fewer points mean safer driving.

Hey folks, as a bus driver who's often on the road, let me talk about demerit points. If your A2 license gets over 12 points deducted, you'll definitely need to take a one-week course plus an exam; less than 12 points and you won't need special training. But don't take it lightly—a buddy of mine accumulated 10 points last year and almost had to attend the course, so he changed his habits and drives less at night now. High points can also affect your insurance rates, so it's best to check your violation records regularly and keep your points low for a more worry-free drive.

Simply put, an A2 driver's license requires attending traffic regulation courses if 12 points are deducted; no learning is needed if fewer than 12 points are deducted. Why? The rule aims to enhance safety—more deductions indicate higher risk, and learning reinforces knowledge. When driving, I always remind myself not to drive fatigued or speed. Fewer points mean no need to worry about extra learning. Staying vigilant is key—don’t wait until mandatory courses are required to regret it.

Why Are Domestic Cars Cheaper Than Joint Venture Cars?

There are many reasons why domestic cars are cheaper than joint venture cars. The following is a detailed introduction to the reasons: 1. Differences in the three major components: The three major components of a car consist of the transmission, chassis, and engine. Domestic cars started developing these components relatively late, so there is inevitably a significant gap in quality compared to joint venture cars. As a result, domestic cars can only compete on price to attract consumers. If domestic cars were priced similarly to joint venture cars, their sales would undoubtedly suffer. 2. Brand effect: Many consumers do not prioritize car performance when purchasing a vehicle but rather focus on the influence of the car brand. The brand influence of joint venture cars is significantly higher than that of domestic cars, and joint venture cars also invest much more in advertising. Joint venture cars indirectly pass on the cost of advertising to the price of the cars we buy. Excessive advertising also leaves a deeper impression in our minds, leading us to prefer joint venture cars when making a purchase, under the assumption that joint venture cars are inherently better.

Can I Claim Depreciation Costs for a Rear-End Collision?

Compensation for car accidents generally does not include depreciation costs. Below is a detailed explanation regarding rear-end collisions: 1. Liability Issues: If your car is rear-ended, the other party is fully responsible. You can directly claim compensation from the other party's insurance company using the accident responsibility determination certificate issued by the traffic police, along with the repair cost invoices. This falls under the property loss compensation of compulsory traffic insurance. If both parties cannot reach an agreement on compensation, you can directly sue the other party and their insurance company. 2. Compensation the Other Party Should Provide: In the event of a rear-end collision where the other party is fully at fault, besides claiming repair costs, you can also request compensation for vehicle depreciation and loss of income. For these additional affected expenses, you can demand compensation from the other party.
