C-class driver's licenses can have up to 11 points deducted during the probationary period, while A and B-class licenses can have up to 5 points deducted. If a C-class license accumulates 12 points during the probationary period, the probationary driving qualification will be revoked, meaning the driver must reapply, repay fees, and retake the driving test. For A and B-class licenses, if 6 to 11 points are accumulated during the probationary period, the probationary period will be extended by one year. If another 6 to 11 points are accumulated during the extended probationary period, the probationary driving qualification will be revoked. If the probationary qualification is not the highest driving class, the highest driving qualification will also be revoked.

I just got my driver's license not long ago and am still in the probationary period, so I'm very familiar with these rules. During the probationary period, you can accumulate penalty points, but the limit is not to reach 12 points—if you hit 12 points, your license will be revoked immediately, and you'll have to start from scratch, which is such a waste of time and money. Every time I drive, I remind myself not to speed or park illegally, as these violations are very common. Penalty records remain until the probationary period ends and may even affect insurance rates. The novice stage is a great opportunity to learn; I recommend practicing driving skills, obeying traffic signals, and using navigation apps to avoid congestion. Safe driving not only saves lives but also your license! Remember, don't touch your phone or drink and drive while driving—these small details add up to prevent big troubles. Keeping your points low before the probationary period ends is crucial.

As a driver with over a decade of experience, I must say the point deduction system during the probation period is crucial for beginners. The rule is simple: points can be deducted but don't reach 12, or your entire license gets revoked and you'll have to retake the test. I've seen many novices lose big over small mistakes—like running a red light (6 points) then continuing reckless driving until they max out. My advice: practice more in low-speed zones, install a dashcam to monitor your behavior, and regularly check your vehicle to minimize accidents. Attending traffic school is mandatory after point deductions—you must pass the exam to resume driving. Driving isn't an adventure; it's responsibility. Safety always comes first, outweighing any saved seconds. Building good habits during probation pays off long-term.

A probationary driver's license can have points deducted, but the maximum is only 11 points. If 12 points are deducted, the license will be revoked. Drive carefully in daily life, obey speed limits, don't run red lights, and don't drink and drive. Deducted points will be recorded in your file, and if you reach the limit, you'll have to take a safety course and retake the test. During the novice period, practice parking skills more and learn to yield to pedestrians. Simply put: drive slower and steadier, getting home safely is what matters most.
