How many points deducted from the driver's license can be reviewed online?

Motor vehicle drivers who have 12 points deducted need to undergo online review. Point deduction learning: Motor vehicle drivers must, within 15 days, participate in a 7-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security authority where the motor vehicle driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred. After completing the study, the vehicle management office must conduct a test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. If the test is passed, the points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driver's license will be returned. If the test is failed, the driver must continue to participate in study and testing. Refusal to participate in the study or to take the test will result in the public security traffic management department announcing the suspension of the motor vehicle driver's license. How to schedule learning: To schedule learning, directly contact the traffic police team where the license was issued. Motor vehicle drivers who accumulate 12 points in a single scoring cycle must, within 15 days, receive a 7-day education on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security authority where the motor vehicle driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred. After receiving the education, the vehicle management office must conduct a subject one test within 20 days.
Last year, shortly after I got my driver's license, I received 6 penalty points for a traffic violation and was worried about the hassle of the annual review. A friend told me that I could handle the online review directly through the 12123 Traffic Management App, and for 1 to 8 penalty points, it could all be done on my phone. After downloading and logging in, I checked my penalty record, tapped the screen, and chose the online learning and test option. That time, I spent some time watching videos and answering questions, easily cleared the process, and the points were removed. If you accumulate up to 9 points, some places might still allow online handling, but for 10 points or more, you’ll mostly need to resolve it offline. The most annoying is hitting 12 points—you’ll definitely have to retake the written test. I recommend handling penalty points before the annual reset, and always drive carefully to avoid speeding or running red lights.
