How to Cancel the Application for an Electronic Driver's License?

Open the Traffic Management 12123 app. After entering the homepage, click on "My". Enter "My Vehicles" and delete the vehicle. The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as "driver's license", which is the certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. The electronic driver's license, commonly known as "electronic driver's license", provides drivers with online "show certificate" and "show code" services, making it more convenient for the public to handle affairs and travel. It will be fully promoted nationwide in 2022.
I had also applied for an electronic driver's license before, but later felt the risk was too high if my phone got lost, so I canceled it on the Traffic Management 12123 APP. The process is quite simple: first, open the APP, log in with your account, go to the 'My Driver's License' page, find the option for the electronic driver's license, and click on it. There will be a button to revoke the application or deactivate it. Confirm, and it's done. The whole process takes a minute or two, with no fees involved. After cancellation, the electronic version becomes invalid, but the physical driver's license can still be used without any impact. It's recommended to check your network connection for stability before canceling to avoid interruptions. Also, if you applied by mistake, it's better to cancel as soon as possible. Otherwise, the APP might sync new data, such as when renewing an expired license, requiring you to go through the process again, which can be quite troublesome. In short, the settings in the APP are quite intuitive. It's always good to pay more attention to privacy and security, especially with the current prevalence of data leaks.
I recently dealt with canceling my electronic driver's license, mainly because I got a new phone and was worried about app confusion. The method is primarily through the official app "Traffic Management 12123." After logging in, go to the driver's license management section, where there's an electronic license menu—just click the cancel option, and it's easily done. If the app freezes or doesn't respond, don’t panic. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app before retrying, or switch to another device. Also, after cancellation, the electronic version is deleted, but remember to carry your physical license—police still primarily check the physical one during traffic stops. If you're worried the cancellation won’t go through, you can also visit the local DMV office for manual assistance. However, the app method is faster and saves you a trip. My personal experience was that after applying, I didn’t back it up on the app in time, causing it to get stuck on a page, but canceling once fixed it. I recommend making it a habit to regularly check app settings to ensure information security.
I've been driving for ten years and have tried both applying for and canceling the electronic driver's license. To cancel, just log in to your account on the Traffic Management 12123 APP, go to the electronic driver's license section, click the cancel application button, and confirm. The whole process is simple with not too many steps. After cancellation, the electronic license becomes invalid, but as long as you have the physical booklet with you, it won't affect daily driving. I found canceling necessary in case of application errors, such as when renewing an expired license, you need to reapply for the electronic version, otherwise, the APP information might conflict and cause errors. When operating the APP, ensure good phone signal and don't exit midway. Always pay attention to APP updates, as older versions might have changed button locations.
