How to Handle Accumulated 12 Points on Driver's License?
2 Answers
If a driver accumulates 12 points on their license within one year, they must attend a 7-day traffic regulations training and retake the subject one exam. Below are the relevant details: 1. For Class A/B Licenses: If a motor vehicle driver has two or more instances of reaching 12 points or accumulates over 24 points within one scoring cycle, the vehicle management office must also conduct a road driving skills test within ten days after the driver passes the traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. 2. For Class C Licenses: The motor vehicle driver must report to the traffic management department of the public security authority at the license issuance location or the location of the violation within 15 days to participate in a seven-day study session on traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge.
Last time, I accidentally ran a red light and was speeding, which added up to a full 12 points—what a hassle. My driver’s license was directly confiscated by the traffic police, and they told me I had to report to the DMV within 15 days to register for a course. At the DMV, I queued up to get study materials and had to pay a fee for the course—what an expense. I had to attend seven full days of traffic law classes, staring at the screen memorizing various signs and rules, and squeezing in time to do practice questions. Finally, on the day of the final exam, I rushed early to take the theory test (Subject 1), and luckily, I passed on the first try. I got my license back the same day I passed, but I’ve really learned my lesson—I’ll drive properly from now on and never want to go through this kind of daily class and memorization ordeal again, wasting both money and time.
