I've been through this before—lost my driver's license and got caught running a red light. Actually, losing your license doesn’t mean the traffic violation goes unaddressed. Points are still deducted as usual because the traffic police system can track your record via your ID number. The key is to apply for a replacement license first. Back then, I immediately reported the loss at the police station, got a certificate, and headed straight to the DMV to get a new one—it only took a few days. Once I had the new license, I went to the traffic police station to handle the violation and point deduction. The deduction record was automatically linked to my license. Don’t delay too long, as someone might misuse your lost license, leading to bigger trouble. Always keep your license safe, and it’s wise to take a photo as a backup in case it gets lost again. The process was simpler than expected, and everything went smoothly. It gave me peace of mind while driving, with no impact on future driving.
