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.

As a new driver who just got my license, I made a few mistakes and had points deducted. The recovery process was easier than expected: just drive carefully without violations for a while, and the points will gradually recover. Specifically, a scoring cycle lasts about 12 months, and if no new violations occur, the points reset to full at the end. I took an online traffic safety course, which reduced my penalty by 2 points after passing. The key is to develop good habits, like wearing seatbelts and paying close attention to speed limits. Now I drive much more steadily, and my points are slowly returning to normal.

When teaching people to drive, I often say that recovering lost points on your license requires proactive measures. The first step is not to panic—driving normally without violations will gradually replenish your points. At the end of the scoring cycle, the system automatically restores them. In severe cases, you can enroll in courses at designated institutions, and passing the exam may reduce your penalty. Daily adherence to rules like maintaining safe distances and yielding to pedestrians helps prevent further deductions. The process is straightforward—just stay consistent.

What are the standard dimensions for car parking space markings?

For straight parking space markings, the width is 2.5 meters, and the length ranges from 5.0 meters to 5.5 meters, with 5.3 meters being the commonly used planning dimension. Below is an introduction to parking space marking knowledge: 1. Introduction: Parking spaces are composed of 0.15-meter-wide markings, usually in white. Yellow may be used for ground parking space markings, and white road marking paint is often used to indicate the direction of the vehicle's front. The standard parking space size is 5.3m x 2.4m, with adjustments made as needed without affecting parking. Each space is numbered to prevent parking errors and to help drivers locate their vehicles. 2. White Markings: Firstly, white is frequently used in parking lot marking constructions. It is more visible and suitable under strong outdoor light reflections, giving the garage a unified appearance. Some underground garages even paint no-parking grid lines in white, such as the markings in the underground parking lot at Changping Beiqijia Jade Park by Jingkai Tengda. Additionally, white markings also indicate that the parking space is a paid parking space.

Where are the drainage outlets located on a sedan?

Open the fuel tank filler cap, and you can see the drainage hole located below the fuel tank cover. Here is a related introduction about drainage pipes: 1. Air conditioning drainage hole: It discharges the condensed water generated during the use of the air conditioning system outside the vehicle. The moisture outlet is generally located at the lower part of the evaporator box and connected to the chassis through a hose. Therefore, you may notice a puddle of water under the car after the air conditioning has been running for a while. 2. Engine compartment drainage hole: It is typically located on both sides of the front windshield wipers, with one on each side. The engine compartment is a relatively open environment, so wastewater and debris can flow into it along the windshield. Engineers have designed a water barrier at the rear of the engine compartment, along the lower edge of the windshield, and incorporated drainage holes in the barrier. 3. Sunroof drainage hole: A sunroof is a must-have feature for most car buyers. However, since an opening is made in an area that requires waterproofing the most, proper drainage measures are even more essential.

What Causes Rust at the Top Mounting Point of a Car's Shock Absorber?

This area is generally prone to water accumulation, leading to rust. Below is relevant information about shock absorbers: 1. Introduction: A shock absorber (Absorber) is used to dampen oscillations from spring rebound after absorbing vibrations and impacts from the road surface. Widely used in automobiles, it accelerates the attenuation of frame and body vibrations to improve ride comfort. When traversing uneven roads, while suspension springs can filter road vibrations, the springs themselves still undergo reciprocating motion, and shock absorbers are employed to suppress this spring oscillation. 2. Working Principle: Most automotive suspension systems use hydraulic shock absorbers. Their working principle involves the piston moving up and down when relative motion occurs between the frame (or body) and axle due to vibrations, causing the hydraulic fluid inside the shock absorber to repeatedly flow from one chamber to another through various orifices.

What are the effects of overfilling engine oil in a sedan?

Excessive engine oil can reduce the engine's power output. Here is some relevant information about engine oil: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), serves multiple functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of lubricants, determining their fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the shortcomings of the base oil, providing additional performance characteristics. Additives are an essential part of lubricants. 2. Classification: Engine oils in the market can be broadly categorized into mineral oils and synthetic oils based on their base oil (vegetable oils are not considered due to their scarcity). Synthetic oils are further divided into full synthetic and semi-synthetic oils.
