How to Restore Points After License Deduction?
3 Answers
Points deducted from a driver's license can be restored through the 'Study to Reduce Points' feature on the Traffic Management 12123 app. The specific steps are as follows: The first step is to apply. Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, click on 'Study to Reduce Points' under the education and learning services, select online learning and examination, and then click 'Apply'. The second step is to study. After the application is successful, re-enter the 'Study to Reduce Points' page and click 'Proceed to Study'. The third step is the examination. After completing the study, re-enter the page to proceed to the examination. Passing the exam will restore 1 point. Important Notes: 1. The 'Study to Reduce Points' feature can only add a maximum of 6 points within one scoring cycle. 2. If a driver's license accumulates 12 or more points within one scoring cycle, the 'Study to Reduce Points' feature cannot be used. 3. Online learning must total at least 30 minutes within three days, and each study session must last more than 5 minutes to be valid. 4. To pass the examination, you must answer 18 or more out of 20 questions correctly. Otherwise, you need to take a make-up exam within 24 hours. If you fail the make-up exam twice or do not take it, you must reapply for study and examination.
Having driven for so many years, I've experienced points being deducted from my license. Actually, recovering points is straightforward: as long as you don't commit any new violations within a scoring cycle, the points will automatically be restored when the time comes. Remember, the scoring cycle typically starts anew every 12 months. For example, I was once deducted 6 points for speeding, but after a full year without any new offenses, my license points were fully restored. I recommend paying attention to speed limit signs while driving, avoiding distractions like using your phone for navigation, and obeying traffic signal rules. This not only helps in point recovery but also ensures your safety. If you do accumulate a serious 12-point deduction, you'll need to attend a traffic rules study course and pass the test, after which the system will reduce some of the points. Patience and self-discipline are key—don't always think about taking risks like overtaking. My advice is to install an official traffic app to check your point changes regularly, so you won't panic knowing where you stand.
People who have dealt with similar issues will tell you that recovering lost points on your driver's license relies on daily safe driving behavior. Points aren't permanently gone once deducted - the system gradually restores them based on your compliance record. The count resets at the end of each scoring cycle. For significant point deductions, voluntarily enrolling in official traffic safety courses and passing the exams can help reduce penalties. I've seen many cases in my network where drivers recovered from common violations like running red lights or drunk driving - the key is maintaining good habits afterward: regular vehicle maintenance checks, avoiding fatigued driving. Tools matter too - linking mobile apps to driving information platforms for real-time monitoring helps correct potential violations immediately. Long-term, this approach proves most effective for natural point recovery.
