Is a B2 driver's license exempt from review if there are no demerit points?

[DeJulianna]

B2 driver's license can be exempt from review if there are no demerit points. The annual review items are for drivers who have demerit points within the B2 driver's license scoring cycle; if the B2 driver's license has no demerit points, there is no need to participate in the review. Below is relevant information regarding the annual review of B2 driver's license: 1. B2 driver's license annual review process: Most local vehicle management offices have self-service terminals for processing driver's license annual reviews, but if there is no self-service terminal, drivers need to queue at the counter for processing. 2. Types of annual review items after B2 driver's license receives demerit points: In the new regulations for B2 driver's license annual review, there are corresponding requirements for different demerit point situations. (1) If the demerit points on the driver's license do not exceed 12 points: Only need to participate in the above three annual review items. (2) If the demerit points on the driver's license reach 12 points but less than 24 points: When the demerit points reach 12, the driver's license will be revoked. In addition to participating in the annual review, the driver must also retake the subject one test, and the driver's license can only be restored after passing subject one. (3) If the demerit points on the driver's license reach 24 points: After reaching 24 demerit points, the driver's license will also be revoked, and the driver must participate in the annual review and retake subject one and subject three. (4) Special circumstances: The annual review time for the driver's license is thirty days before the end of the scoring cycle, and even if the annual review time is exceeded but not more than one year, the annual review can still be conducted. However, if the driver fails to participate in the annual review for three consecutive scoring cycles with demerit points, the driver's license will be revoked.

I've been driving a truck myself for several years and find that with a B2 driver's license, as long as there are no demerit points, it's basically exempt from review. At the end of each scoring cycle, as long as the points are cleared, there's no need to make an extra trip to the traffic management office for inspection. However, this is only a short-term convenience. The validity period of a driver's license is generally six to ten years, and when it expires, you still have to go to renew it, otherwise you can't drive. Paying attention to speed limits and traffic signals while driving and keeping a clean record can save you the hassle of inspections. I remember once a friend got two points deducted for speeding and had to attend two hours of classes every week, which was even more annoying than the inspection. So, safe driving not only saves you trouble but also money, as getting points deducted could affect your work income. Overall, the point that no points mean no inspection is quite practical, but the key is not to let your guard down and forget to handle the renewal when the time comes.
