How many points can be deducted in one application for point reduction through legal study?
2 Answers
Each point reduction application can only deduct one point, with a maximum of 6 points deductible within one scoring cycle. Application for point reduction through legal study: Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, click "More" on the homepage to view additional functions. Under "Education and Learning Services," the first function is point reduction through legal study. Rules for point reduction through legal study: By participating in online learning, accumulating 30 minutes of study within 3 days with each session lasting no less than five minutes, passing the exam can reduce 1 point. A maximum of 6 points can be reduced within one scoring cycle. If the exam is not passed, a retake can be applied for within 24 hours, with a limit of 2 retakes. The Traffic Management 12123 app can quickly help users complete the application and exam to regain points. However, pay attention to the scoring cycle. If the maximum of 6 points has already been reached in the current scoring cycle, no further applications for exams are allowed. Under any of the following circumstances, point reduction through legal study cannot be applied for: Within the current scoring cycle, the motor vehicle driver has two or more full-point records, or the accumulated points reach twelve; In the previous scoring cycle, the motor vehicle driver had two or more full-point records; In the most recent three scoring cycles, the motor vehicle driver fled after causing a traffic accident, drove under the influence of alcohol, used forged or altered motor vehicle license plates, driving licenses, school bus signs, or other motor vehicle license plates or driving licenses, or was penalized for buying or selling points; The motor vehicle driver's license is in the probation period, or the motor vehicle driver's license has not been reviewed on time, or the motor vehicle driver's license is seized or temporarily suspended; The motor vehicle driver has unprocessed traffic violation records; The motor vehicle driver owns a vehicle with overdue safety technical inspection or has not completed deregistration as required; The motor vehicle driver engaged in fraudulent activities or impersonation when applying for point reduction through traffic safety education or during full-point education and review education exams.
As a frequent driver, I find the 'Study to Reduce Points' system quite practical. It mainly involves learning traffic rules to deduct points from driving violations. Typically, applying for a study-based exam, if passed, can reduce 1 point. This doesn't mean you can apply casually—you must diligently study the content and pass an online test to get the point reduction. Within the entire cycle, you can reduce a maximum of 6 points. For example, when using the Traffic Management 12123 App on your phone, the system automatically records the attempts. I think this mechanism is great as it encourages drivers to learn more about safety. However, if your points have already reached the full 12-point deduction, you’ll need to attend classes or retake the test. When applying, make sure the information is accurate and avoid careless entries to save time. Overall, the 1-point reduction per attempt is reasonably designed, but the best approach is still to follow traffic rules and avoid penalties in the first place.
