How to Handle 12 Points on Driver's License?
2 Answers
Handling method for 12 points on driver's license: If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 points within a scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain their motor vehicle driver's license. The driver must, within 15 days, attend a seven-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security organ where the driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred, followed by an examination. If the examination is passed, the points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driver's license will be returned. If the examination is failed, the driver must continue to participate in study and retake the examination. If the driver refuses to participate in the study or take the examination, the traffic management department of the public security organ will announce the suspension of their motor vehicle driver's license.
My driver's license has accumulated 12 penalty points, so I need to deal with it promptly, otherwise I won't be able to drive. I experienced this before when several speeding violations added up to 12 points, and the traffic police directly issued a notice. The handling process is as follows: First, you must report to the vehicle management office and arrange to attend a seven-day traffic safety education course. You'll spend several hours each day attending lectures, which cover traffic regulations and accident cases—quite practical. After completing the course, you'll need to retake the theoretical test (Subject 1). The questions are similar to those when you first got your license, but you must pass to clear the points. If you fail once, you'll have to retake it. The whole process is a bit time-consuming, taking about a week to complete, but remember to bring your ID card and driving license. Always follow traffic rules when driving—don't run red lights or speed—to avoid losing all your points.
