After meeting the required study time, you can apply to take an online exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within seven working days. Passing the exam once will reduce 1 point from your record. Here are the relevant details: 1. According to regulations: Motor vehicle drivers participating in online road traffic safety law studies organized by traffic management departments of public security authorities will have continuous study periods of five minutes counted towards cumulative study time. Accumulating 30 minutes of study within three days counts as one session. 2. Retakes: If you fail the exam, you can retake it within 24 hours, with a maximum of two retakes allowed. The maximum point reduction within one scoring cycle is 6 points.
I'm quite familiar with the 'Study to Reduce Points' system. After driving for several years, I know that you can reduce your driver's license demerit points through studying and taking exams on the 12123 platform. Usually, passing each exam deducts 1 point, with a maximum of 6 points per demerit cycle. The cycle is a 12-month period starting from the day you got your license. So, while each reduction is small, accumulating them over time can make a big difference. For example, if you get a ticket with too many points, you can watch traffic rule videos and take a test on the app to immediately reduce points, preventing them from accumulating to 12 and risking license suspension. The process is simple: download the 12123 app, register and verify, select the 'Study to Reduce Points' option, watch tutorial videos, take a short exam, and passing automatically deducts points. I've used it this cycle—passed two exams and reduced 2 points, which was quite helpful. Plus, it's a good way to learn new rules and improve safe driving awareness, making it a great deal. Just remember to act early and not procrastinate, as points reset at the end of the cycle, so you don’t miss out when you need it most.
The 'Learn to Reduce Points' is a great initiative, especially for young drivers. After studying and passing the test on the 12123 APP, you can have your demerit points reduced, with a maximum reduction of 6 points per scoring cycle. In practice, each passed test reduces 1 point, and you can take multiple tests to accumulate the reduction, but it cannot exceed 6 points. The cycle lasts for 12 months, starting from your driver's license date. It's designed like a mini-game: the videos are short, about 20 minutes, and the test consists of 20 questions, requiring 18 correct answers to pass. After reducing points, the total demerit points are deducted accordingly to prevent reaching the limit and facing a driving suspension. I think this policy is fantastic—it helps avoid minor mistakes turning into major issues. It's useful for common violations like speeding or illegal parking. The APP is user-friendly, allowing you to complete the process at home in just a few minutes. Last time, I took the test three times and reduced 3 points, which worked well. The key is to plan ahead and not wait until the last minute when there are no points left to reduce. New drivers should try it to develop safe driving habits.
